A far from easy puzzle to wrap up matters and COLEORTON CHOICE is our choice to see off the pairing of Aakef and Invincible Heart. The selection is not devoid of early pace and with an ability to act on any surface, he has far more positives on his card than most. Michael Jarvis has been sending out winners a plenty so watch out for Aakef. He will need some luck in running but the step up to six does not appear to be a problem. Invincible Heart has the plum draw on the inside rail. He did not do a lot wrong in a fair Newmarket maiden but the handicapper has had plenty of chances to check his sums. Parisian Pyramid represents a yard in form so don't rule him out from an unfavoured draw. Lucky Numbers has been a little out of sorts at this track in the past though he has clearly developed since his juvenile days. Locally trained Cool Art was backed heavily in a claimer at Lingfeld before producing yet another flop. He has his first run for Peter Grayson this afternoon. Kersivay won well at Catterick last time out and could be one to note at longer odds for the each-way backers. Coleorton Choice is not without his negatives in this field but in a race where plenty have claims, his appear the most obvious.
