Pindar gets the vote ahead of Cool Isle, Fantastic Delight and Megalala. Pindar was down to run at Wolverhampton on Friday night, and whatever the outcome there, with Jamie Spencer booked to ride today, he is sure to be a popular choice despite the fact that he had shown nothing in three starts prior to Friday. Cool Isle was third in a Yarmouth seller last time, so he looks beatable, while Fantastic Delight just cannot get involved in the finish at present and now moves back up in trip. The market may reveal if anything else is fancied, but in a poor finale, Pindar is the pick, and if he does line up chasing a quick double then take note.
