4/1

Failed to beat a rival home when beaten 110L into eighth on debut here a month ago. Likely to struggle once more.

Fifty Peach Way⁸⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-9| J: C O'Farrell| T: Alex Swinswood

20/1

Fair eighth on debut here in December but failed to build on that at Doncaster subsequently and others have a more obvious chance in this.

Forecasts

Imperial Aura (10/11), Rhythm Is A Dancer (7/4), Ferrobin (4/1), Dontcounturchikens (6/1), Presentedwithwings (6/1), Out For Justice (10/1), Fifty Peach Way (20/1), Peanutsponypetite (25/1), Scappato (33/1), Terezaz Nimrod (50/1)

IMPERIAL AURA can step up on his debut third by breaking his maiden in this concluding bumper. The winner of the bumper he contested at Kempton on debut has run well in a Grade 2 contest since and he can provide Kim Bailey with a third victory in this contest in recent years having taken both the 2014 and 2015 renewals. Rhythm Is A Dancer can put a disappointing effort last time out behind him by finishing runner-up in this while Ferrobin who represents a leading yard and can claim third on his racecourse debut.
