Not the best classified race in the world highlighted by the presence of Lucky Bid who is rated at 26 but something has to win it and we like the mildly progressive profile of IVOR NOVELLO with Hint Of Honey also likely to be in the mix. Trainer Alan Swinbank has managed to get improvement out of the selection in all three starts so far and while he has yet to experience polytrack he should act just fine on it. He is one of the highest rated in the field and could yet have more in the tank. Hint Of Honey should go well off these terms as one of the highest rated in the line-up. The filly put in an improved effort last time to just miss out on a place and it could be she is just hitting some form. Fyelehk has been consistent in recent starts but unfortunately for connections consistently just outside the places but he can go well here and Kings On The Roof looked much improved last time and is treated well enough to get involved. The good thing about this race is that you should get good value for the winner who we think will just be Ivor Novello.
