      Verdict

      My Love Thomas gets the confident vote here with Soto and Desert Master rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair second behind Pusey Street Lady last time out and that form looks rock solid in the context of this race. He races off the same mark here and looks the one to be on. Soto rates the main danger on his best form as he has dropped to a handy mark but he looked far from straightforward last time out and is taken on with this in mind. Desert Master is another that could go well on his latest fourth behind Bold Minstrel. He looks sure to be suited by the return to this longer trip and he will not be far away. Mugeba and Dunn Deal have the ability to go close off this mark but can't be backed confidently and for the winner we will return to the progressive My Love Thomas.
