Verdict
Colton is taken to win the finale at the expense of Tacid and Red Sail. The selection carries a six pound penalty for his recent success at Pontefract when breaking his maiden tag. Connections must feel confident that he is well treated with the penalty and if able to repeat that performance he will be difficult to beat. Tacid was in blinding form over the winter months and has run well in defeat this summer to. He caught the eye when third behind California Laws at Southwell last time out and will pose as the biggest danger. Red Sail should be noted as he did manage a win at Lingfield back in May and conditions will suit him here. But for the winner we return to Colton.
