A competitive six-furlong handicap in which a number have to be considered but Seven No Trumps is given as a tentative selection. A course and distance winner, the Barry Hills-trained gelding hinted at a return to form in cheekpieces last time and, now stepped up to six furlongs, should go well back on a winning mark. Any number of the others have to be considered, including Tim Easterby's Good Girl, racing in a first-time eyeshield, Now Look Here, well weighted on the best of his form but would welcome a deluge of rain, and the lightly raced Roger Charlton runner, Seel Of Approval. The list is far from all-inclusive so, once again, it's tricky but Seven No Trumps might just provide the answer.
