Totally Scottish is marginally preferred to Just Waz and My Legal Eagle. Totally Scottish seems unfazed by the going these days and while he is not open to any further improvement, at this lowly level, he has far more positives than most. Just Waz is often well supported without much in the way of success. My Legal Eagle is a rare visitor to this grade although his backers have waited almost two years for any success. Turner is less exposed than most and makes a step up in trip. The market is canvassed for an opinion. Valeureux is not the most consistent of creatures but any softening of the ground would make him of interest. Rouge Et Noir should be fit from a spell over hurdles. Not the most vibrant of betting mediums to say the least and Totally Scottish has less negatives than most.
