A wide open bumper here and as usual in these types of events the market will prove all important but the principals look to be Grande Creole, Rico Hombre, and The Muratti and we will side with the newcomer Grande Creole. The selection hails from a yard that does well in this sphere and he got a favourable mention in a recent stable tour. The Muratti rates the main danger despite his penalty. He won well last time out when defeating Seanithesmuggler and he may put his experience to good use. Rico Hombre is also worthy of respect as he is another from a top yard that is worth noting in the market. Of the remainder The Fridge is from a yard that had a bumper winner on Saturday but for the winner we return to Grande Creole.
