Verdict
Pardishar, Without A Doubt and Imperial Rocket look the three to concentrate on in this competitive opener and the vote is given to Without A Doubt. The selection was a fair fifth behind Hot Weld last time out. This looks easier and with conditions in his favour he need only run up to that mark to score. Pardishar rates the main danger on his best form but he looked far from genuine last time out when second behind Cousin Nicky so he can not be put forward with any confidence. Imperial Rocket is another that could go well on his latest sixth behind Nazimabad but he has not progressed as expected. Of the remainder Made In Montot is from a yard in form and is sure to strip fitter here than for his latest run and should be noted in the market, but Without A Doubt sets a fair standard and he looks a value bet in an open affair.
