Verdict
Brandy House, Balmoral Queen and Agnese are three against the field in this wide open seller and the vote is given to Brandy House. The selection is dropping in grade has conditions to suit and although he has a 420 day abscence to overcome he looks the value bet. Balmoral Queen rates the main danger on her best form but she pulled up for no apparent reason last time out so she cabn not be put forward with any confidence. Agnese is another that could go well on her latest third behind Balmoral Queen but she barely sees out the truip and is opposable on that basis. Mags Two is dropping in grade but looks weighted up to his best. This is a trappy affair and stakes should be kept to a minimum and where the marjket will be very infiormitive for the winner we return to Brandy House.
