Another wide open affair here with many in with chances and the principals look to be Jostle, Mr Kalandi, Oakley Absolute and Saxon Lil and the tentative vote is given to Mr Kalandi. The selection was a fair fourth behind High Dyke last time out weakening only close home this shorter trip is sure to suit and from the same mark here he will be hard to beat. Jostle rates the main danger on his latest fifth behind Casemate as he was sent off favourite on that occasion so is clearly thought capable of better so again he should be noted in the market. Oakley Absolute is another worthy of respect but he was behind the selection last time and has a little to find on the same terms here. Saxon Lil showed improved form when a staying on third behind He's A Starat last time and is another that should be suited by this longer trip. Of the remainder Zarova is from a very shrewd yard and is another that could go well but for the winner we return to Mr Kalandi.
