Verdict

Lord Capitaine, Just Sooty and Forest Dante are three against the field and the vote is given to the first mentioned. The selection ran well last time out when second behind Direct Access. That was his seasonal reappearance and he should come on bundles for that run which will make him difficult to beat here. Just Sooty rates the main danger as he looked quite useful when disposing of Benrajah when last seen out. He has had his problems but if he handles this step up in trip then he should run our selection close. However, has he never run over this trip before he looks worth taking on. Forest Dante goes particularly well on this course and he lost no caste in defeat when a good second behind Weaver George last time out. He has since gone on to disappoint so it will be interesting to see how they both run here. This is an interesting contest and several look to be in with a chance, but we will side with Lord Capitaine as the one to beat.
