I'M YOUR MAN gets the vote to win this seller though Freedom Flying and Genari are others to make a modicum of appeal. The ten-year-old is better known as a handicap chaser these days but he was posting one or two fair efforts over hurdles a season ago and this drop in grade is certainly interesting. Freedom Flying is moderate though tries hard. She has it to do on the figures though will inevitably challenge for a place at decent odds. Genari had some decent form when trained by Charlie Morlock. He was third in a fair seller at Perth last week. Fellow Irish raider, Laragh Hill, seems to have gone to pieces since leaving Gordon Elliott and is best avoided. Three Ships is regularly seen in plating grade though has never actually raced at Sedgefield previously. Wood Fern does not win frequently though as a class dropper this afternoon, he makes fair enough claims in a race of this nature. I'm Your Man is not without a few questions to answer but he gets our recommendation in a race where cogent cases can be made for many.
