In depth
Verdict
A wide open contest gets proceedings underway. I Got Rhythm is taking a big drop in class, is from a stable that has a good record at the track and he will be hard to beat with conditions in his favour. Minivet would win this easily on his old form, but he has become disappointing of late. However he to is dropping down in grade. Dark Victor was a staying on fifth in a similar contest last time out behind Stormy Beech a reproduction of that form would give him definite place claims. Rainbow Chase has been in fair form of late on the flat and he has also shown enough ability to suggest he can win a race of this nature. Highbank would have a chance on his best form but jockey bookings suggest he is the stable's second string. Ginner Morris would also worthy of consideration on his best form but he was very disappointing last time out. Of the remainder Rayware Boy is from a yard in form and is worth a look in the market.
