Dark Thunder gets the confident vote in this seller with Willie The Fish and Middleway rating the main dangers. The selection is thrown in on his best form. is dropping in class has conditions to suit as as he goes well fresh he will be hard to beat with his yard in form. Willie The Fish rates the main danger on his best form but he has yet to prove he stays this far and he me also need another run before he hits top form and he is passed over with this in mind. Middleway would be a danger to all on his second behind Another Promise a couple of runs ago but consistency is not his strong point so he can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder Wensley Blue could improve for the fitting of first time cheek pecies but his overall profile leves him with plenty to find and for the winner we return to Dark Thunder.
