It's feasible that Sonny Sam is well treated here and he should run a big race but this time we find preference for BOLLIN GRETA with That'll Do Nicely also considered. The selection was unable to make an impression on his return after a 183 day break last time under a slightly lower mark. It looks like he needed the run and based on his winning performance under a penalty over this trip on his penultimate start his mark could still be on the low side. Sonny Sam is still a maiden after eight starts on the level but he still could be off a winnable rating at this after narrowly missing out late on off three pounds lighter last time. That'll Do Nicely's sole success as come on Southwell's fibresand and while that might be a concern in these conditions he does have some form on quick ground, however his mark looks a little high. You could also give chances to Los Nadis, Miss Keck and Jane Of Arc based on their last runs but they should be fighting for place money behind Bollin Greta.
