A tricky race with some potential improvers in the line up but Clonroche Vinyls may provide the answer. Ferdy Murphy's charge has been struggling to get home over further in testing conditions but showed his appreciation for a step back in trip when a close third in a maiden at Newcastle last time and promises to be just as effective over today's distance on quicker ground which should enable him to last home. The Rashar gelding remains unexposed and looks capable of progressing further so should make a bold bid to open his account over timber. King Bee has been taking on some useful company since lifting a novice event at Ascot in November and has to be respected despite top weight while Little Big Horse has been dropped in the weights and should find this trip ideal. Jonjo O'Neill continues in fine form and Shoshoni Warrior may be capable of more than he's shown of late on his handicap debut. On The Day disappointed last time but is better judged on a close second in novice company at Sedgefield on Boxing Day which gives him place claims.
