A tough race to call here for punters and the draw may prove all important and with this in mind the main protagonists look to be Far Note, New Options, Paddywack and Raymond's Pride' and the tentative vote goes to New Options. The selection will like the cut in the ground he has dropped to a fair mar and a reproduction of his latest third behind Free Option would see him go close. Far Note rates the main danger he won well last time when defeating Sea The World on the AW but he has been no favours by the draw here and for that reason he is opposed. Paddywack is another that could go well he has dropped to a handy mark and goes well fresh and he is sure to have the race run to suit. Raymond's Pride is another that could go well he won well last time out at this course when defeating Highland Warrior but that was over five furlongs and he is not sure to be suited by this longer trip. Of the remainder If By Chance has a good draw and he is a course and distance winner who could run well at a price but for the winner we return to New Options.
