A winner in handicap company last time and with less on his back here RED RUDY has the selection with All In Red the main challenger and Edes Dot Com also in with a chance. The selection took advantage of a lowly looking mark to score with a bit to spare here over a slightly shorter trip last time. Now in claiming company he should enjoy these terms and has every chance to score again. All In The Red won a weak looking seller last time at Southwell over distance. The form is likely to be weak from that and his inconsistency is a concern, at his best though he could easily take this. Ede's Dot Com is probably one of the more consistent runners in this field and drops into claiming company for the first time. The form from her last outing when third of six runners works out well enough and in these conditions is a short listed contender. Takitwo and Wrighty Almighty have the typical profile for horse competing at this level, sometimes they run well other times not, so given that they have to be considered on best form but Red Rudy looks in the best form at present.
