Kidithou, Day du Roy and Emerald Destiny are three against the field in another tough race to call for punters and the tentative vote is given to Day Du Roy. The selection won well last time out when beating Dalriath and although rising in the weights he again has conditions to suit and he looks a value bet in an open affair. Kidithou rates the main danger as he was staying on well when unshipping his rider two out behind Petit Lord a proffesional now takes over and he should be watched in the market. Emerald Destiny was a fair second behind Dead Mans Dante last time and is another with place claims but he looks weighted up to his best. Of the remainder Neutrino is on a handy mark and could go well at a price but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Day Du Roy.
