This race marks the switch to the all-weather, and from a trio of Tabulate, Jelly Mo and Fareeha we'll side with TABULATE. It's a contest that may not take a great deal of winning; the selection won over course and distance on his penultimate run when giving plenty of weight away to most. That was followed up with a placing, also here, so we know there are no doubts about the trip or the surface. Jelly Mo has been disappointing over this trip on turf, but may find improvement on this surface having previously shown up okay - albeit at a shorter distance. Being joint bottom weight, and with first time cheek pieces will assist. Fareeha may try and front run as when finding a few too good here last time. However there's more quantity than quality in this contest. It's not a great race, but there has to be a winner, and we'll side with Tabulate.
