Eton should not be passed over here and can score at the expense of Trouble Mountain and Opening Ceremony. Eton ran no sort of race in an amateur race at the weekend where he could have done with stronger handling. Alex Greaves rides here and having run well for her in the past Eton, on the best of his form, should have every chance especially if the ground stays fast. Trouble Mountain acts on most surfaces and was not disgraced last time out in the John Smith's Cup at York. If that tough race has not taken too much out of him he should go close especially if the stable money is down. Opening Ceremony, if reproducing the form he showed for Amanda Perrett last season, would have every chance at these weights but his latest form has been patchy and cannot be backed with confidence though is well capable of landing some place prize money. In summary, take Eton to rifle home.
