The usual ultra-competitive line-up for this valuable sprint. Summerghand is a standing dish in such contests and was back to form last time after a quiet season when a close-up fourth at York. He seems as useful as ever at the age of nine and is shortlisted. His stablemate Gulliver is also expected to figure after a low-key campaign to date but the choice is MONSIEUR KODI, whose recent performances suggest he remains on the upgrade. Kevin Ryan's record in races like this is enviable and his Dream For Gold appeals in receipt of weight all round, as do fellow three-year-olds Lakota Blue and Sophia's Starlight off decent marks. Cairn Gorm and Live In The Moment could also play a part.
