With his good course and distance record and nice draw we are happy to plump for BRAVE ECHO. Although his mark of 93 looks a tad high, Michael Attwater's colt has ideal conditions today and a better run is expected. Elna Bright has not been himself in his last two runs but remains capable of better, whilst Richard Hughes might suit the nine-time winner Autumn Blades. The most interesting horse in the line-up is Quick Wit who is up 11lbs for his beating of Aerodynamic at Nottingham but he is making giant strides so is far from discounted. Mr Willis loves the track, and along with Seek The Fair Land and Venutius commands respect, especially if the market vibes are positive.
