Katiypour is given the narrow vote here ahead of Deeper In Debt, Samuel Charles and Spindor. The selection will have to defy top weight to win this but does the services of Lisa Jones who takes a handy 3lbs off his back. He won a similar race to this at Lingfield back in March, and is expected to make a bold bid to score. Deeper In Debt and Concer Eto are both course and distance winners so have to respected, while the lightly-raced Samuel Charles could be interesting after running well when second behind Nimello at Wolverhampton last time. Spindor proved he stays this trip when finishing a close third behind Double Ransom at Hamilton last time, while Analyze is not the most reliable but could be capable of running on into a place. This is a difficult race to predict but we will make Katiypour the tentative choice.
