Verdict

DIVISION DAY has some fair winning Flat form to his name and signalled he is ready to strike in this sphere when runner-up at Doncaster last time out so gets the vote. Winning pointer Shinealight could emerge as the chief threat if, as expected, building on her Newcastle seventh, while Noble George, Sioux Falls and Swingingonthesteel all command plenty of respect too.
