Verdict

A large field goes to post for this seller but on closer inspection not many can be given a serious chance of winning and with this in mind the principals look to be Mill Bank, Autumn Mist and Lucky Leader and the narrow vote is given to Mill Bank. The selection has been in fair form of late without winning but a reproduction of his latest second behind Collinstown sets the standard in the context of this race and with the step up in trip also in his favour he will be hard to beat. Autumn Mist rates the main danger as he won a point to point in good style last time out, this does not look much harder and he should be noted in the market. Lucky Leader is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Sissinghurst Storm. If he runs up to that mark he would not be far away but consistency is not his strong point and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Gee Aker Malayo is from a yard in form and could go well at a price as he looks to be on a fair mark but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Mill Bank who at least is consistent.
