        Verdict

        Borehan gets the confident vote to win the finale with Missouri and Sea Salt rating the main dangers.Murfreesboro The selection finished in mid-division in a better race behind Murfreesboro last season. This looks easier and given nominal improvement he will be hard to beat. Missouri rates the main danger as he showed a modicum of ability on his debut last season and is another that is sure to improve but the suspicion is he will be seen to better effect over a longer trip in time. Sea Salt hails from a yard in top form and could go well at a price but he may be seen to better effect in handicaps. Of the others Coalite at least has fitness on his side but in a race where few can be fancied for the winner we return to Murfreesboro who gets the confident vote.
