This is no better than the first division as not one of the entries is bringing any worthwhile form into the contest. HEEZAGREY is the token selection on account of the fact that he does know how the get his head in front and is only a couple of pounds higher than when scoring over fences at Fontwell last August. He's also had a recent run unlike Wosayu, who probably has more scope. Head Spin and Kingston Tiger may be best of the rest but that's not saying much.
