Attorney lines up chasing a hat-trick and is taken to do so at the expense of Banjo Bay, Dunn Deal and Essex Star. Although there is a large turnout here, not many can be given leading claims, and as Attorney has already proven himself lately, he has an obvious chance of adding to his two most recent wins. Although he only scraped home at Folkestone, he has the assistance of Mark Halford which will help his cause. Banjo Bay was unlucky to be caught close home by Sir Bond at Musselburgh last time and can only be helped by the drop back in trip, while Dunn Deal finished well at Catterick and will appreciate the extra distance here. Essex Star bolted up in a weak affair at Yarmouth last time and now has a seven-pound penalty to overcome, but still makes more appeal than the rest, although any support for Bold Bunny in the ring would be interesting. Attorney lines up in more form than most and should be bang in there at the finish.
