The choice here is Silver Bow, with Jackie Boy and El Corredor nominated as the ones to chase him home. Silver Bow finished a fair second to Pass The Class at Hexham last time and a return today to the trip that he won over at Huntingdon three runs ago should suit and, in a race that lacks any real strength, he can go well. You know that El Corredor will keep galloping, so he might earn some money for connections, while Jackie Boy, the sole course winner in the line-up, is not out of it despite now racing from six pounds higher than her recent Exeter win. Of the others, Casalani made some improvement last time, Welsh Dane has developed a penchant for finishing third, Sundawn Lady is another that has plenty of placings to her name, Twist N Turn has been raised eight pounds for a Wetherby selling win and this looks a little tougher, Tinvane Rose showed some improvement in a first-time visor last time but more will be needed again today and, finally, Rhetorical is not entirely out of it based on autumn form. The choice, though, once again, is Silver Bow.
