Palmerin, Adwaitya and Avertis look the ones to focus on here, with Palmerin selected to make it two wins on the bounce. Addwaitya's best runs have come on a fast surface, including a last time out win, and he made all the running to score in fine style at Goodwood last time. This track may not be quite as well suited to front runners, and the ground may not be as quick as he wants but he is a threat. Avertis picked up a couple of small races, but then appeared to have his limitations exposed next time at Leicester. He can reach the frame. Palmerin only won a modest handicap over the course and distance last time, and a seven pound rise in the ratings seems harsh, but his success was not undeserved, after a couple of placed efforts. Palmerin, back at the scene of his latest win, looks ready to do it again.
