In depth
Verdict
A wide open contest here with many in with chances on their best form but the main protagonists look to be Rossellini, Blonde Streak and Sharp Secret and we will take a chance on Blonde Streak. The three year old won well on this course last time out when defeating Sherrifs Deputy and a reproduction of that effort would make him hard to beat. Rossellini rates the main danger he was a fair third behind Marina's Charm last time out and he should go well from the plum draw. Sharp Secret is also worthy of respect he is a course and distance winner but he gave the impression the handicapper had just caught up with him when fourth last time out. of the remainder Star Quest and Brazilian Terrace are from yards in form and are worth noting in the market but we are happy to side with the in form Blonde Streak.
