Verdict

Vibes ran easily his best race to date on this track last time and he is one for any short list. The consistent filly Getna has found one too good in each of her last two races but her supporters will be back in numbers hoping she can finally get her head in front. STORM MELODY has only managed to win one race in his career to date but he started this season with excellent runs at Ascot and York and has not been far away in two subsequent starts. He certainly has the scope to win more races and is a confident choice here.
  1. Storm Melody
  2. Vibes
  3. Getna
