In depth

Verdict

This looks slightly easier than Cheers For Thea's recent tasks on the Polytrack and Bobs Her Uncle can figure with Paul Hanagan on board for his reappearance. Looks Like Rain is better over further but Croftamie has a chance off her current mark back on a faster surface. Good Speech should go close after suffering a narrow-margin defeat at Wolverhampton earlier this year but OPEN LETTER is just preferred. The latter scored at Yarmouth in better company than this last season and can return to winning ways with a recent run under her belt.
