Verdict

This can go to Out For A Stroll if he turns out quickly, with Border Edge, Cayman Breeze and Stevedore just three more in with claims. The outcome of this could hinge on whether Out For Stroll turns out after his run over a mile here on Tuesday. He was set to defy a six-pound penalty, and if doing so he will again line up fancied here. If he runs then look no further, but in his absence the race will develop a more wide-open look, with Border Edge sure to go close. John Bridger's seven-year-old made all in a classified contest at Folkestone last time and similar tactics can see him be involved in the shake-up back in handicap company. Cayman Breeze meets Stevedore on two-pound worse terms after beating him narrowly in a claimer here last time, while Kalani Star has found one too good more often than not this term, but is massively better off with Cayman Breeze for a neck defeat here in June. All in all, this is a close one to call unless Out For a Stroll turns up, in which case he would be the selection, with Border Edge next best.
