Just three make any appeal here and the winner is expected to come from the trio of Hollows Mill, Kidithou and Coulters Candy, with the first named nominated as the selection. Hollows Mill chased home Reggie Buck at the last meeting here in what was a handicap, but he will be more at home in this company and with normal improvement can take all the beating. Kidithou has better form overall and comes from a top stable but his slight absence might count against him, while Coulters Candy has the assistance of Tony Dobbin but may need further than this.
