Verdict

The Gaikwar is a bit of an enigma and cannot be relied on to give his true running so therefore we will side with the well-handicapped Wrighty Almighty ahead of Wind Chime. The selection lingers on a mark of 55 at present and having won off 76 before, he must be on anyone's shortlist. Quick ground suits, and as he is only five-years-old, it would be folly to write this son of Danehill Dancer off just yet. Wind Chime is another course and distance winner and his third last time out reads fairly well here. He likes fast ground and cannot be underestimated. Lockstock is dangerously well-handicapped, whilst Tender The Great has been in good form recently although the stable are going through a quiet patch. At a price Bold Cross could go well, however Wrighty Almighty gets the vote.
