        Verdict

        Malmand gets the call here over Fraternity, with a number of others to consider at bigger prices. The selection is the only course winner in the line-up, that success having come in a seller last March. A repeat of that effort gives him solid claims here. Fraternity, who did quite well in the Middle East in 2002, takes a big drop in trip here from recent runs. That should suit and it's fair to say that he has a very good chance based on his British form of two years ago. Others with place claims on bits of form are Chickasaw Trail, Dancing Tilly, Tropical Son, Repertoire (who races in blinkers for the first time) and Soleil d'Hiver, who might appreciate this longer trip. The Laverton Lad showed promise on his second start, but has done little in two runs since, while Samar Qand is held on November form by the selection. Famed gambler Barney Curley runs Ndola in this contest, but the five-year-old has a long absence and little in the way of form to overcome if he is to score. This leads us back to Malmand, who gets our vote.
