Parkinson gets the confident vote here with Another Jameson and Nicozetto rating the main dangers. The selection was a progressive type last season remains on a fair mark and under copnditions that suit and with his yard in form he will be hard to beat. Another Jameson rates the main danger on his latest second behind Delray Beach but he is creeping up the weights without winning and is taken on with this in mind. Nicozetto will make a bold bid to make all the running but he will find it hard on this stiff track. Of the remainder Zaffie Parson looks on a handy mark and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to Parkinson who looked progressive last season.
