        Verdict

        This may not be as daunting as it first looks and Mistral Sky is given the vote over Fen Gypsy, Cold Climate and El Chaparral, who spearhead the challenge represented out of the remainder. That said, Florian does have claims on the best of his efforts and it would be no surprise to see him bounce back in this company now that he has got the benefit of a couple outings behind him from this season. Johnny Ebenezer is being kept very busy of late and it will be very interesting if the market assumes his recent exertions will not be a hindrance to his chance tonight. However, like a number of the rest, he has been struggling at this sort of level lately and could find a few too good again here - especially if the selection runs up to his best. Mistral Sky, a regular in events of this type, hails from a yard that have done well in races of this type this season and he looks to have been found a good opportunity to strike again in this modest company.
