Easydoesit has won a visor and blinkers in his last two starts. Cheekpieces are combined with a hood here in an attempt to discover the magic formula but he's clearly an enigmatic individual who has had a break since finishing third at Wolverhampton in June. Petrify also appears to have a mind of his own but has the ability to figure in a race like this, though remains winless after 22 attempts. MEXICAN MICK finished behind Petrify at Chepstow last time but was given too much to do. He could reverse the placings and land this if ridden more positively today. Tornado Battle may be best of the rest.
