Tresor Preziniere, Nocksky and Mac Hine are three against the field in this handicap chase and the confident vote is given to Tresor Preziniere. The selection has won his last two races in good style and a reproduction of his latest effort when defeating Sunshan should suffice. Nocksy rates the main danger as he was a fair second behind Choisty at Hereford and if the rain were to get in the ground then he would be hard to beat. Mac Hine is from a yard in form and has the ability to go close but his best form is over a longer trip and he may just need this run as he has been off the track since April. Palouse is on a handy mark and is another worth noting in the market, but for the winner we return to Tresor Preziniere.
