Another open affair in which many would have chances on there best form. Uncle Burt Dominikus and Shalbeblue are all proven under these conditions but a chance is taken on Ulusaba. The gelding from the Richard Guest yard won well at Doncaster last time out and although he has risen in the weights for that victory he won in the style of an improver and he may still be ahead of the handicapper. Uncle Burt was second behind Looking Forward last time out and a reproduction of that effort would see him go close especially as he is proven on this undulating track. Dominikus is another in form but he looked as if the handicapper had caught up with him last time out when second behind Broadbrook Lass.Shalbeblue would have a chance on his best hurdles form but he looked far from a safe conveyance on his last run and for that reason he is opposed here. Of the remainder Bengal Boy is from a yard beginning to hit top form and he is worth a cautionary look in the market.
