Verdict
Kilgary gets the confident vote here with Secret Assassin and Lucksin rating the main dangers. The selection is a well bred Pleasant Tap filly out of an unraced mare from a top USA family, hails from a yard in form and will not need anything special to take a hand in the finish. Secret Assassin rates the main danger on his latest fifth behind Queens Composer but he has had plenty of chances and looks vulnerable to a less exposed type. Lucksin is another that could go well on his latest second behind Charles Parnell but he is becoming expensive to follow and is passed over for that reason. Of the reminder Casual Affair is another that catches the eye on breeding and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to Kilgary.
