KYLE OF BUTE looks likely to take some beating here and is selected to beat Royal Composer and Tivers Song. Our pick beat Royal Composer convincingly over course and distance last time and deserves extra credit for racing on what appeared the slowest part of the track. With that in mind a 4lb penalty shouldn't be enough to stop him following up under the same jockey with conditions set to be near identical. Royal Composer remains on the same mark and should in theory get closer so while it's hard to see him reversing the form there has to be every chance he'll chase home Kyle Of Bute once more, as the rest don't make much appeal. Best of them might be Tivers Song who seems to save his best for this venue, but he is a 25-race maiden and therefore can only be supported each-way. Emperor's Well is getting on in years and finished a long way behind our preferred pair when ninth last time while Masterofceremonies is back down to his latest winning mark but finished a place further back in 10th and can't be seriously supported to turn that deficit around. A race severely lacking in strength can go to Kyle Of Bute.
