Cases can be made for a few of these but, as Sienna Sunset arrives here in cracking form, he is selected over Pay Attention and Keeper's Lodge, who spearhead the challenge from the rest. The last named is unexposed at the trip and has no questions to answer regarding his ability to handle the ground. A positive move in the betting should not be ignored and he holds definite place claims in this company. Pay Attention ran well over course and distance earlier in the season and arrives here at the top of his game after winning at Newcastle on his penultimate start. The recent rains will not have dampened the threat of his challenge and he is a live danger to them all. However, Sienna Sunset, who likes to come late on the back of a strong pace, could have the race run to suit and, as he is only 3lb higher than when he won at Ripon a fortnight ago, he has every chance of following up today.
