Attorney improved with every race last season without obviously getting his head in front and looks the one to be on today in this tricky looking event. Henry Candy's horses should always be given a second look at this Midlands track and there is no reason to suggest Brainwave can't run a big race by utilising the speed that she is bred for. Terry Mills has his charges in good order this season and his Type One is a gelding who could have improved over the winter and his talented young apprentice takes off a useful couple of pounds. John O'Groats is an interesting runner, he ran very green on his only racecourse appearance and should be more confident today.
