A tough contest for punters here to fathom with many in form rivals in opposition including Red River Rebel, Aoninch and Piste Bleu and we will take a chance on Aoninch. The three year old won well last time out when defeating Hoh Viss, this slightly longer trip will suit and under similar conditions he will be hard to beat. Red River Rebel rates the main danger on his best form but he was slightly disappointing behind Swynford Pleasure last time so for that reason he is passed over here. Piste Bleu would have a chance on his win at Catterick a couple of runs ago and he appeared not to stay the 13 furlong trip last time so now he is back to his favoured trip he has definite place claims. Of the remainder Cool Bathwick is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but he has an 259 day absence to overcome so we are happy to stick with the bang in form Aoninch.
