Verdict

Beat Box will undoubtedly be popular given the roll he's on this season, but he may have to play second fiddle to OSTRAVA DU BERLAIS, who arrives on a hat-trick following a couple of wide-margin wins and Venetia Williams' progressive chaser looks one to keep firmly on the right side of. Keep Running, another commanding last-time-out winner, can get the better of Triple Trade for minor honours.
