Verdict
The London Gang, Ten Prophets and Came Back look the main protagonists in this desperate seller and the narrow nomination is given to Ten Prophets. The selection won well last time out when beating Okums Razor in a maiden and if he is fit to do himself justice after a 260-day break he will be hard to beat. The London Gang rates the main danger as he beat Primo Way in a claimer last time and this looks eaiser so he should be closely watched in the market. Came Back is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is prone to breaking blood vessels and he is taken on with this in mind. Miracle Ridge is dropping in grade and is another to note in the market but in a race where few can be fancied Ten Prophets looks the most solid option and gets the vote.
