Mister Comletely is taken to land this at the expense of Valance and Atlantic Coast. The selection has been in fantastic form this summer winning three times and many placed efforts. He was back in the winners enclosure at Wolverhampton recently and is only running off a pound higher mark so has to be respected as a result. Valance has top weight to lump around and had been struggling to trouble the judge of late but for his latest effort when finishing second to Newnham at Kempton. That was a bounce back to form and if back to his best then he would have a chance. As would Atlantic Coast who is visored for the first time and has a nice racing weight to carry. He was second in similar conditions over course and distance last time out and is only two pounds higher as a result so is respected. But for the winner we return to Mister Completely.
