Enchantment is given the confident vote with Johnny Parkes and Harry Up rated as the main dangers in a competitive affair. The selection is a progressive filly from an in-form yard and as she won in good style in a decent race at Bath last time she is taken to score. Johnny Parkes will relish these conditions and he confirmed his well-being with a good third behind Benbaun at Thirsk last time. Harry Up is best at this trip but ran well over 6 furlongs at Nottingham last time behind Lake Garda. Borzoi Maestro was a game winner at Brighton when defeating Sweet Pickle, but he has a 6lb penalty for that win to anchor him here and that may be enough to stop him from scoring. This is a difficult race for punters to fathom, but Enchantment is in good form and is given the nomination.
