Racing Post verdict
Third-partyPisanello heads this nine-runner Class 6 contest at Hamilton on ratings, sitting narrowly ahead of a trio of dangers in Braes Of Doune, Jenson Benson and Hostelry, all three rated 57 and capable of making this competitive over nine furlongs on good ground. The selection will need to reproduce his best to keep that group at bay, but there is enough here to suggest he holds a genuine edge. **Pisanello** is our selection.
