The older horses are easily dismissed with the exception of dual bumper winner Tricksofthetrade and Rio's Rosanna, who showed promise on her debut at Ripon. ARDLUI never figured at Newbury in the maiden won by the smart World Domination but Henry Candy's colt will find life much easier in this and he gets the vote. Body Language finished a respectable second at Newcastle over today's trip and looks to have every chance, while Unex Picasso should appreciate the longer distance after his debut fourth over a mile at Nottingham back in November.
