Nabeeda renews rivalry with Paddy Jack on 5lb worse terms after their clash at Ripon in mid-August and can confirm those placings here given his favourable draw in stall 16. Mel Brittain's lightly raced sort had been campaigned over varying distances in his three appearances before breaking his duck last time. The minimum trip is slightly on the sharp side but the easy ground conditions suit him. Paddy Jack is a maiden after 18 starts which would bring about concerns with regard to the worth of the form of the Ripon event won by Nabeeda. He tends to break quickly so that should enable him to negate his low draw. Select Committee's sole victory was achieved in soft ground and has been dropped 1lb from his two defeats of late. The visor looks to have brought about improved performances from John Quinn's charge in recent outings. Of the remainder, smart form is thin on the ground and Hits Only Time makes some appeal on picks of what he has achieved while Paul Midgley's Handsinthemist has reserved her best performances for quick surfaces which if repeated would see her become a place contender. Nabeeda gets the tentative vote to come home in front.
