Printsmith, Soul Provider and Arms Acrossthesea are three against the field in a tough race to call for punters and the tentative vote is given to Soul Provider, The selection was a fair seventh in a better race last time out behind All Quiet, This looks easier and of what looks a lenient mark he is taken to score. Printsmith rates the main danger on his best form but he was very disappointing last time out for no apparent reason and at likely odds he looks worth opposing. Arms Acrossthesea is another that could go well now that he returns to this grade but he looks vulnerable off top weight. Noorain is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but she has yet to prove she is effective over this trip. Of the remainder Swinton is one of the least exposed in the field and is open to plenty of improvement so is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Soul Provider.
