Brady and LORD WISHES are the stand-out performers here. Although the former has finished runner-up five times, he's been well beaten on his two latest starts on ground with some give and would prefer quicker going. The latter will be ideally suited by the conditions and his only start over today's trip resulted in a very easy victory at Musselburgh. He's the one to be on with Swingbridge probably the best of the remainder.
