        Verdict

        Bluebok, Salviati and Henry Hall are the three to concentrate on here and the vote is given to Bluebok. The selection has been in good form of late and although he has been rising in the weights he remains progressive and the handicapper may not yet have his measure. Salviati ran well for a long way last time at Pontefract after a tardy start and there is no doubt that he is on a handy mark at present. However, he is probably not as good as he once was and he is narrowly passed over on this occasion. Henry Hall has been threatening to win a race for a while now and he is a course and distance winner. He is another who is well-treated on his best form and it would be no surprise to see him in the thick of things at the finish. Fun To Ride is from a shrewd yard in decent form so is another to note in the market, but for the winner we will stick with Bluebok.
