        Verdict

        Up Tempo, Mount Hillaby and Certifiable are three against the field in another tough race to call for punters and we give the nomination to Up Tempo. The selection has been in fair form of late without winning but was a good third behind Wahoo Sam last time out this looks easier and off the same mark here he will be hard to beat. Mount Hillaby rates the main danger on his latest third behind Noora but although he looks well weighted compared to his turf form his AW form leaves him with a little to find and for that reason he is opposed. Certifiable is another that could go well he was a good winner last time out in a claimer when defeating Zorn.However that was over a shorter distance and this longer trip is not sure to suit and he looks opposable on that basis . Of the remainder Tagula Blue is from a shrewd yard and has dropped to a handy mark so should be noted in the market but in a race that throws up more questions than answers for the winner we return to Up Tempo
