As with a lot of all-weather sellers, this contest provides a very difficult proposition for form students where any result would be no real surprise. All The Best is certainly no great shakes but would have a major chance on the best of her form providing she takes to this surface. One who is proven here is Tommy Nutter and based on his second in this company two starts ago he gets a very tentative TEAMtalk vote. Amanda's Lad is going the wrong way and can't be backed with any confidence while Arabian Knight has the speed to make his presence felt and can be given another chance after losing his action last time out. Unlike her rivals Forceful is at least definitely going the right way and is an obvious danger while the unraced Proud Victor represents a very dangerous stable but it is worrying that he makes his debut in this company.
