      Verdict

      A decent two year old contest full of previous winners. Boater has something to prove at the moment, Kocollada ideally wants further than this, and the hat-trick seeking Lawless Louis will surely find one or two of these too strong. POET’S SOCIETY has bags of speed and more experience than most of these. He was an impressive winner of a decent looking maiden at Newcastle a few days ago and can edge this one. Queen Mary candidate Tahoo and the speedy Chevalier du Lac can fight out the places.
