WRONGWAYROUND is the highest rated horse in the line up and is fancied to take the spoils ahead of Monaco Dream and Sultan's Choice. Alan Swinbank doesn't have a great strike rate at this track but he does boast a fantastic record in sellers on the level and Wrongwayround may be able to provide the shrewd handler with another winner. The gelding has shown a fair level of ability in three all-weather outings but may enjoy the drop in grade on his first Flat run on the turf. Monaco Dream has claims on the figures but she didn't find a great deal once headed last time when dropped to claiming company so still has something to prove whilst Sultan's Choice, a winner in this grade, hasn't shown a great deal in two starts this term so needs to bounce back. Tropical Bachelor would be a threat to all if allowed an easy time of things out in front but this trip looks to be on the short side for him whilst Heathyards Junior still has to prove his ability to act on turf so we'll stick with Wrongwayround.
