Forest Tune was a game winner on the all weather last month and thus is entitled to respect. But he does have a little to prove at this trip and is faces a stiff task if he is to follow up here. Therefore, preference is for Annadawi, who rewarded some shrewd each way money at Leicester on his reappearance, and should be a lot sharper for that run. Sheer focus and Suave Performer are others to consider if the market speaks in their favour.
