Verdict

THE COLA KID signalled this his turn is very near when going close over 7.4f here recently and, with this drop back in trip a good thing (all four of his career wins have been over 6f), the 6-y-o is taken to strike off the same mark. Gherkin has been given a chance by the handicapper and he is preferred as the main danger, for all that the bang in-form Hurt You Never has to be high on any shortlist. Bama Lama should have a part to play, too.

  1. THE COLA KID
  2. GHERKIN
