Forever Eyesofblue, On The Luce, Danteco and Just For Fun look the principals in another tough race to call and the tentative vote goes to On The Luce. The selection won well last time out over fences when defeating Indian Laburnum, he returns to huddles on a fair mark and with conditions to suit he will be hard to beat. Forever Eyesofblue rates the main danger he won well last time out when defeating Amber Moss but that was on soft ground and his form on fast ground is not as good so for that reason he is opposed. Danteco is another that could go well he was a fair fourth behind Clear Dawn over fences last time and he returns to hurdles on a fair mark he is another with definite place claims. Of the remainder Just For Fun was a fair second behind Harrovian last time but he is not getting any younger and for the winner we return to On The Luce.
