A particularly uninspiring contest and stakes are advised to be kept to a minimum in a race full of modest performers. Band Of Love is well treated at the weights but is proving most disappointing and can't be backed with any confidence while Dundonald and The Bolter both have something to find on these terms with Answered Promise. The latter was in the process of putting up a fair effort in a better heat at Bath when last seen out in April before finding trouble in running and is the TEAMtalk selection to take advantage of a significant drop in grade.
