A weak seller with a few who have chances however Natural Rhythm gets the nod ahead of Giggling Monkey and Limestone. The selection drops in grade here and should be capable of getting his head in front at the 7th time of asking. Various headgear has been tried on his two most recent outings but they are now dispensed with and Anne Duffield's gelding gets the vote. Little Finch has winning course form so shouldn't be left out of calculations, whilst Piccolo Pete takes a drop in grade after just one start which isn't too encouraging but this could be an easy opportunity. Giggling Monkey has shown glimpses of ability in three starts to date, whilst David Evans has a couple who could get competitive. Limestone drops in grade and the blinkers are given one more go, and whilst he looks a contender, we will return to Natural Rhythm to score.
