Tadlil is preferred to Buy On The Red and Summer Recluse. The penny has taken some time to drop for Milton Bradley's inmate but he won well at Haydock Park and could be open to further improvement. Buy On The Red is an infrequent winner but six furlongs is his trip and he is sure to give another good account of himself. Summer Recluse ran on decisively to score at Bath. Gilded Cove appears to save his best efforts for Wolverhampton so is best watched on this occasion. The Crooked Ring was well backed last time out and should not be discounted if the money is seen again. Banjo Bay appeared to appreciate the drop to hold up tactics when scoring two runs ago and he should be thereabouts if a decent clip ensues. Tadlil looks the percentage call and is likely to be priced accordingly.
