Wizby can come out on top in this weak affair; the list of dangers is headed by Bahhmirage and Bobering. The selection is quickly turned-out again after a good effort here on Wednesday when she was a close third behind Mr Chocolate Drop. She has a good draw today and if she can reproduce that run then she is entitled to go very close. Her chief rival looks to be Bahhmirage who won well last time at Wolverhampton when beating Arthur's Dream. This looks to be more her trip and she can give our selection plenty to think about. Bobering was well beaten last time but this is a drop in grade and he may be capable of running into a place. However, all his best form is at Wolverhampton and he has a poor draw. Itsawindup is having his first run for Sheena West and he has been working well according to his trainer. He could provide the value in the race, but for the winner we will stick with Wizby.
