    Verdict

    This looks to be a very competitive nursery with many in form rivals in opposition including Mind Alert Kozando, Benbaun and Baylaw Star and we will take a chance on Benbaun. The colt from the Mark Wallace yard won well last time out when defeating Dontstopthemisic and he looks to be on a fair mark and with conditions again in his favour he will be hard to beat. Kozando rates the main danger he was a good second behind Knight On the Tiles last time out and still looks to be on fair mark. Mind Alert won well last time out but he may struggle under his penalty. Of the remainder Azolla Baylaw Star are from yards in top form and are worth noting in the market but we are happy to side with Benbaun.
