Another puzzle for punters and so Lewis Lloyd is just a sporting selection to beat Agilete and Ming Vase. Ian Wood's three-year-old beat some much higher rated horses when landing a Carlisle claimer last time. If that effort wasn't a one off he could be absolutely thrown in here and he looks worth a small wager. Agilette hit winning form last time as well, landing a similar event to this on the all-weather at Wolverhampton. He was entitled to land that contest on recent turf running and he cannot easily be ruled out today. Ming Vase is a consistent sort in this type of company and he should be fighting for some place money along with Rudaki. Down at the bottom of the handicap Roman History in a nother worthy of respect. So as you can see it is a race that should be approached with caution and the tentative choice is Lewis Lloyd.
