There is a lot of dead wood in this event and it may well pay to concentrate on top weights Bertie Barnes and PINCH OF GINGER. Both appear to have their quirks, but the former did it nicely at Kempton last time and has strong claims if able to produce a similar effort, while narrow preference is for the latter who has conditions in his favour and may be sparked into life by the aplilcation of blinkers. Unexposed He Is Rosy is not without hope, nor is Georgian Firebird, but a better display would not surprise from Grays Choice.
