Quite an intriguing little contest where it's hard to rule out any of the sextet with the top weight Veejay setting a good standard having finished a good second last time out although his mark has crept up as a consequence. On this occasion it may well be the girls that hold sway and NOBLE MANNERS looks sure to improve on her Newmarket win last time out with the extra distance to suit. The two handicap debutantes are interesting with Bibbidibobbidiboo and Fastalong both looking ideal toes for this sphere and the mile trip likely to really start to getting to the bottom of the latter.
