Bowling Along can take this moderate contest with Kalush and Graceful Air the others worthy of consideration. The selection will appreciate this step up to seven furlongs and is a fairly consistent sort so should go well. He ran poorly on his penultimate start at Leicester but connections reported that he ran flat. His third at Catterick last time signalled a return to form and a reproduction of that effort here should be good enough. Kalush looks exposed but is in good form and ran a cracker at Thirsk earlier in the month so could take a hand in the finish here. Of the rest Graceful Air has a tendency to run a bit keen but has shown ability and if he settles could go well. But Bowling Along sets a fair standard and we are happy to take a chance on the Mike Sowersby charge.
