Nisbet, Banana Ridge and Alittlebitopower look the three to concentrate on in this hunter chase and the confident vote goes to Nisbet. The selection won well last time out when defeating Go Nomadic under similar conditions and he need only reproduce that form to score. Banana Ridge rates the main danger he won well last time when defeating Buddy Giere but that form has since been let down and he is past over for that reason. Alittlebitopower is another that could go well he was a fair third behind Boulta last time over a longer trip but the drop in distance is not sure to suit and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Lethem Air is from a shrewd yard and is worth a cautionary look in the market but for the winner we return to Nisbet.
