In depth

Verdict

Voice Mail, Shrine Mountain and Gold Guest look the three to concentrate on in this seller with the narrow vote going to Voice Mail. The selection was a fair sixth and not beaten too far behind Danzare on his latest start. This represents a big drop in class and with his yard in form he need only run up to that mark to win this. Shrine Mountain rates the main danger as he won last time out when defeating King After in this grade but he did have the race run to suit that day and he will do well to give weight and a beating to the selection. Gold Guest is another that could go well on his best form but the suspicion is he may just need the run after a 113-day absence. Cetshwayo is from a yard in form and is worth a cautionary look in the market from his plot draw but for the winner we are happy to return to Voice Mail.
