Earlsfield Raider gets the confident vote in this seller with Chunky Lad and Tashkandi rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair second in similar grade behind Mickey Pearce last time out. That form looks solid in this grade and as he may have improved for the run he is hard to oppose. Chunky Lad rates the main danger on his best form but he ran out last time out so he cannot be put forward with much confidence. Tashkandi is dropping in grade but showed little last time out so cannot be put forward with much confidence. Paradise Expected is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he has had plenty of chances and for the winner we return to Earlsfield Raider.
