Verdict
Chatshow holds strong claims in this company and is chosen to beat Largs and Pulse. Tony Carroll's gelding put up a terrific performance over the five furlong trip here when beating all bar Cargo. The winner has since given the form a massive boost and this progressive three-year-old looks the one to beat. Largs is a model of consistency on both turf and all-weather. Her recent course second to Myskina over seven furlongs makes very good reading and she looks the main threat to the selection. Pulse has top be a threat to all as he drops into banded company for the first time after running well in much better company throughout the season. Lucius Verrus and Whinhill House are certainly two others with chances on their best form, but for the winner we return to Chatshow
