Bridley's Lettuce and Paladin fought out a terrific finish here last week and both are entitled to get involved again. The weights suggest the runner-up will gain some revenge but Paladin was game then and might have some more to give. RALPHY LAD could be good enough for this race on his early 2016 form and he was perfectly entitled to a blow out last time out, with the promise of more to come now. Port Lairge and Stonecoldsoba are others with chances if holding their form while Miss Tree could easily get involved in the finish.
1. Ralphy Lad
