Though not the most consistent, Shotacross The Bow looks the most appealing ahead of Molly's Secret and Analyse. The selection has some solid form in the book over this trip and put in a pleasing effort last time out. If he is back to his best he should be too superior for these ordinary-looking rivals. Molly's Secret returns to competitive action having been running mainly in amateur and apprentice events this season. She should benefit from the presence of John Egan on his back and should give the selection most to do. Analyse is a tough and genuine sort who is capable of winning this sort of event though he could possibly be still a little too high in the weights to trouble the selection Shotacross The Bow.
