Verdict

Another very winnable contest. The 30-race maiden Colour Contrast was a friend of the bookmakers throughout the course of 2018, so it'll take a brave punter to decide that he'll make it 31st-time lucky despite the clear and obvious paucity of viable winning opposition. Be Bold is of definite each-way interest for Rebecca Bastiman, but for win purposes a more realistic alternative is the top-weight CAESAR'S COMET. The Irish-raider has a potent turn of foot, and when fully on song is essentially a fair bit better than this level of opposition.
  1. Caesar's Comet
  2. Colour Contrast
  3. Be Bold
