Verdict
Bid For Fame gets the confident vote to win this seller with Romil Star and Extra Cover rating the main dangers. The selection won a claimer in good style last time out when beating Molly's Secret . This looks easier and he need only run up to that mark to win this desperate affair. Romil Star rates the main danger as he was a fair seventh in a better race behind Gold Guest last time. He drops in grade here and should be noted in the market. Extra Cover is another worthy of respect on his best form but that has come over a longer trip and for that reason he is passed over on this occasion. Of the remainder Saameq is from a shrewd yard and is another to note in the market but his overall form leaves him with a little to find and for the winner we return to Bid For Fame.
