Verdict

TAKE ME TO THE SKY needs to break on better terms than he did on his debut but, assuming he's learned from the experience, he still created a favourable enough impression to get the nod as the one to be with this time. Berkshire Savvy hasn't looked the most straightforward character in two previous runs but stuck to the task well to finish second last time out. He's got more to offer and can be a player in a modest contest such as this. As can Silver Samurai and Doctor Nuno, who both appeal on pedigree and won't need to be out of the ordinary to get involved in the action at the business end.
  1. Take Me To The Sky
  2. Berkshire Savvy
  3. Silver Samurai
