Ndola, Glendale and Saucy are the three we like here and we will put forward Saucy as our selection. Saucy won well last time out and her trainer thinks there could be more to come. The stable is in good form and she looks the one they have to beat. Ndola rates the main danger and this 6-year-old from the Barney Curley yard landed a bit of a touch when scoring at Southwell last time beating Kentucky Bullet. He has got an obvious chance of following-up and a watching brief on the market is advised. Glendale is in good form but he had the race run to suit last time when beating Temper Tantrum and he looks worth taking on today. Bretton is the other one that could go well at a price but for the winner we return to Saucy.
