Selected odds by:
Likes to front run and occasionally makes those tactics pay, but in truth he looks very much in the grip of the handicapper at present and is likely to find at least one of these stronger at the business end.
Last two wins have come at this track and can race off a mark lower than both those victories. On the downside this trip looks on the sharp side for him these days and his recent form has been fairly ordinary.
Had been running some decent races over a mile and showed this trip is within his compass two days ago at Bath. Has produced the goods on an artificial surface so certainly one to consider.
Fairly consistent and as a result has not been done any favours by the handicapper; likes to front run but may have to do battle with the topweight here. Deserves to win a handicap and this could be a good opportunity.
Got his head back in front at Goodwood earlier in the campaign over a mile in a five-runner contest; disappointed last time out at Ascot but encouraging he is turned out so quickly and while trip possibly not ideal should hold every chance.
Forecasts
Alnadir (11/8), Let Rip (7/4), Michele Strogoff (9/2), Sophosc (10/1), Secret Art (12/1)
Aside from a below par effort at Windsor on his second start of the season ALNADIR has been running with enthusiasm and consistency and this race looks winnable for the Noble Mission colt. who showed his well being with a fine effort at Brighton last time out. Let Rip ran a fine race just two days ago at Bath and if allowed to take his place here should give the selection most to do now he has proved he stays this 1m2f trip. The other front runner in the field Michele Strogoff is very consistent but might find a couple of these too strong in the finish off his current mark.
