A draw on the inside is often a huge advantage over five furlongs here and none of these are better berthed than Turn On The Style, who is taken to make the most of a draw in stall one, with Trinculo and Savile's Delight rated the best of the remainder. The selection has been in good form of late until disappointing at Haydock on a softer surface last time and back on faster ground today, and from box one, he looks the one to beat. Jadan has been done few favours with a draw in stall eight and of more interest may be Talcen Gwyn, who has a decent draw and a first time visor. Strensall is capable but is another with a difficult draw to overcome, while Kings College Boy has shown signs of running into form but probably needs more help from the handicapper. Top weight Trinculo is probably in better form than any of these but has the worst of the draw, while Savile's Delight is pretty consistent and can again be expected to run his usual good race. The vote though goes to Turn On The Style, who is taken to make the most of his draw in stall one.
