        In depth

        Verdict

        Look Of Eagles, Wainwight and Cool Sands are the three against the field in a wide open affair, with the first named just getting our vote. Paul Cole's filly landed a competitive event over course and distance back in November and wasn't disgraced last time when a close up third to Parkview Love. She is relatively lightly raced and so there could be more improvement to come and she looks the best option. Wainwright found the rejuvenated Nan Jan just too good last time. That was an improved performance and he should be capable of making the frame. Cool Sands is a model of consistency at this level and is another to consider for place purposes. The pick of the others could be Samuel Charles, but our idea of the winner is Look Of Eagles.
