      Verdict

      Sharaab gets the confident vote to win the finale with Watch The Dove and Alaskan Fizz rating the main dangers. The selection had every chance until falling in a race won by Call Me Edward last time out, this looks easier and off the same mark under conditions that suit he is taken to score. Watch The Dove rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Baladeer but all hios best form of late has been over fences and he is taken on with this in mind. Alaskan Fizz is another that could go well but he dissapointed last time out. However if the fitting of a first time tounge tie improves him he could go well at a price. Of the remainder Firstflor is from a shrewd yard and is worth a cautionary look in the market but for the winner we return to Sharaab who was unlucky last time out.
