Verdict

This is not the strongest of sellers and Mister Maq gets the verdict ahead of Rockatorri and Bathwick Rox. The selection does have to give weight away all round but is the most reliable in the field. He was successful in a simlar race at Thirsk and has been placed in two better races since. He has done most of his running on a faster surface and so the ground is a slight concern, but he does look to be the clear form horse. Bathwick Rox has been doing most of his racing on the all-weather recently but has claims on some decent runs on the turf last season. Rockatorri has a bit to find on official ratings but is running pretty well at present. Coffin Dodger does at least have a victory this season and may do best of the others, but our idea of the winner is Mister Maq.
