Free Zone landed a decent claimer over 6f at Chelmsford last time and can go well again. But DYNAMO WALT won a higher grade sprint over track and trip three weeks ago and he gets the nod in this. Just Us Two finished ahead of the selection when placed at Chelmsford last month and has a shout while Archie Stevens went close at Goodwood in September and can figure with a similar effort. Miracle Garden scored over course and distance earlier this year but remains 5lb higher.
