Verdict

The vote goes to BALTIC BARON, who took a step forward on his qualifying run when runner-up at Sedgefield last time and Brian Ellison's charge rates a likely improver now sent handicapping on the back of a breathing operation. Ilaya lurks on a dangerous mark having been possibly unsuited by conditions at Newcastle 6 weeks ago so is feared most, ahead of Bestiarius and Alright Marlene.
