Verdict

A wide open contest rounds off the card and many would have chances on their best form but the principles look to be Polish Emperor, Seven No Trumps and Musical Fair and we will take a chance on the last named. The selection is well in on the AW compared to her turf mark and was unlucky in running when behind Blythe Spirit. This looks easier and from a good draw she will be hard to beat. Polish Emperor rates the main danger as he won well last time out when defeating Playful Dane and if he can reproduce that effort on this surface he will not be far away. Seven No Trumps is another worthy of respect as he is another that is well weighted on his best form but he is unproven on this surface and he is not getting any better at the age of seven. Byo was behind Polish Emperor last time and although he is better off at the weights the winner won with plenty in hand and he should confirm the placings. Of the remainder, Another Glimpse is sure to have the race run to suit and has definite place claims despite top weight, but for the winner we return to Musical Fair.
