        Verdict

        Just the eight runners for the finale but not the easiest of races to solve as most of them look pretty exposed now. Con Allen's Weecandoo has claims if fit enough for this seasonal reappearance but it is off-putting that the daughter of Turtle Island has not been seen for 11 months. Radley Park is less exposed than most but is not certain to get the trip and may not be good enough anyway, while Jeremy Noseda's King Creole, who is a out of a half-sister to Celeric may want further. Tanganika showed little on his debut in Italy and is difficult to weigh up so the best bet, and the TEAMtalk selection, may be Navale. John Gosden's three-year-old was admittedly slightly disappointing behind stablemate La Paz at Kempton last time but earlier form stands up well in the context of this race and we take the filly to open her account.
