David Pinder doesn't get too many winners from his small string but Lunar River was successful last time out and this one can follow up this afternoon, Saluscraggie and Stolen Glance could be the main rivals. The selection held on well to beat Uig in that Lingfield event. The form looks pretty strong as the runner up won next time out and there were two previous winners behind. The handicapper has given her every chance with just a four pound rise in the weights. Stolen Glance has been in great form of late landing a couple of victories and he can go well despite top-weight. Saluscraggie didn't beat much last time but is open to improvement and Furbeseta is from a top yard and deserves every respect, however Lunar River still looks on a decent mark and she gets our vote.
