With the exception of the three-year-old Invincible Dream, who has a chance at the weights with a claimer on board but doesn't look good enough, the remainder are closely matched on official ratings. EFISTORM has the strongest recent form, however, and followed up a win at Kempton with victory at Salisbury last time. Spin Again is weighted to reverse Kempton form with the selection if back to his best while Chjimes finished just ahead of Zip Lock when third here recently and there's little between Elhamri and Ace Of Spies on last month's running at Southwell.
