        Verdict

        Emperor's Well gets the call here ahead of My Pension, Karaoke and Bella Pavlina. An interesting finale may well see Emperor's Well get back to winning ways after seeing his hat-trick bid foiled on a return to the all-weather recently. Mick Easterby's charge tried to make all in that amateur riders' event, but was passed by Colemanstown inside the final furlong. The longer trip and faster Polytrack should be in his favour and the five-year-old has leading claims. My Pension is another that bids to get back on the winning track after finding seven furlongs on the short side at Lingfield. Prior to that he had run two good races over today's course and distance, and can give the selection most to do. Karaoke will be coming fast and late, while Bella Pavlina bids to shrug off topweight and has a nice draw up the inside. Kingsdon may now have gone off the boil but does not have much weight to carry and cannot totally be ruled out of calculations, but the best claims overall appear to be held by Emperor's Well.
