Jacks Delight gets the vote here with Caerphilly Gal and Garnock Venture rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair second behind Ace Club last time out but with the step up in trip sure to suit he looks the one to be on in what looks an easier race. Caerphilly Gal rates the main danger on her latest second behind Tirallieur as this is her optimum trip but she looks high enough in the weights now. Garnock Venture has dropped to a handy mark and could go well at a price but he is hard to win with. Of the others Tiny Tim is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is another that is hard to win with and for the winner we return to Jacks Delight who has everything in his favour.
