Sony Bill gets the nod on our figures, rated 140 and narrowly ahead of O'Moore Park on 139, with nothing else in the 11-runner field within eight pounds of him. O'Moore Park is the obvious danger, and Spectacularsunrise (131) and De Temps En Temps (128) are the others who could take advantage if our pick falls short over the 20 furlongs on good to soft. The margin at the top is slim, so this is a modest-confidence call, but Sony Bill's rating makes him the one to side with. Our selection is Sony Bill.
