Tommythetyler, The Plainsman and Salisong are three against the field in this trappy claimer and the vote is given to the last named. The selection was a fair second behind Dexterous last time out and with the drop in trip sure to suit she looks the one to be on. Tommythetyler rates the main danger on his best form but he is becoming very hard to win with and at likely odds he looks worth taking on. The Plainsman is another that could go well but he was behind the selection last time and will need to improve to gain his revenge here. Of the remainder Queue Up is from a yard in form and could go well from the plot draw but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Salisong.
