      Verdict

      Another difficult little contest where it is hard to come down in favour of any one of the three with experience. All have acquitted themselves adequately so far but Sandy City showed a good attitude under pressure last time and just receives a tentative nod over Ashgar Sayyad, whose best trip is yet to be established.
