Verdict

Cases can be made for plenty but the most persuasive is for SURE AND STEDFAST, who has been shaping up well this season and Ewan Whillans' 4-y-o can go one better than his recent Hamilton second. Heading up the threats is Big Win, who built on the promise of his seasonal/stable debut effort to open his account at Chepstow 3 weeks ago and should have more to offer. Jujubella and It's Only Fun complete the shortlist.
