      Verdict

      La Viola gets the vote here with Greenbelt, Owed and Raul Sahara rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair fifth behind Madame Caversfield last time out, this looks easier and in the hope that first time blinkers brings about some improvement she is taken to score. Greenbelt rates the main danger on his best form but he showed very little on his first run of the season and for that reason he is passed over on this occasion. Owed is another that could go well but she has yet to prove she stays this far. Raul Sahara is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but she is hard to win with and in another trappy affair for the winner we return to La Viola.
