        Verdict

        This is a race that will not take much winning and the leading players are Bijou Dan, Frank's Quest and Merdiff with the narrow vote given to Bijou Dan. The selection gave the impression that he had lost his way a little prior to his most recent effort on this track when he was a good second behind Latif. That was an improved effort and with that recent indicator suggesting he is returning to form he looks worth supporting. Frank¿s Quest is closely-matched with Merdiff on their recent run here when Merdiff prevailed by a neck. Franks Quest should reverse the order today and both will give our selection plenty to think about. Zariano is from a yard in form so is worth noting in the market, but for the winner we will stick with Bijou Dan.
