Verdict
Sholto, Indian Bazaar and St Ivian look the three to concentrate on in this competitive contest in this poor opener and the vote is given to St Ivian. The selection was a fair third last time out and although the drop in trip has to be of concern this is such a poor race he is taken to get away with it. Sholto rates the main danger as he has dropped to a handy mark and ran as if returning to form when fifth in a better race last time out so he should be noted in the market. Indian Bazaar is another worthy of respect on his best form but he disappointed for no apparent reason last time out and at likely odds he looks worth taking on . Of the remainder Miracle Baby is one of the least exposed in the field and is open to plenty of improvement and could go well at a price but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to St Ivian.
