Captain Marmalade has been beaten when odds-on for his last two starts. The longer trip will suit but he's become expensive to follow. New Brunswick has been finding a mile beyond him though his form is moderate while Almoqatel's recent victory came in a Polytrack claimer. Tagtale won a poor nursery at Hamilton and was then beaten in a better class event on this track but ROBBEN produced a vastly improved display when caught close home by Perceived over an extended mile at Nottingham last week and a repeat performance from the same mark can see him home.
