A wide open contest gets proceedings underway and many would have chances on their best form but the principals look to be Fromragstoriches, Jake The Jumper and Approaching Land and the tentative vote goes to Fromragstoriches. The selection was a fair fourth behind No Picnic last time that form has since been franked and if he can reproduce that effort here here he will be hard to beat. Jake The Jumper rates the main danger he was a good second behind Fullards last time but he will not want the ground to dry out any more and for that reason he is passed over on this occasion. Approaching Land is from a yard in good form and has been in fair form between the flags of late he could run well at a price. Of the remainder Little Enam is a well bred sort but he has shown very little of late and for the winner we return to Fromragstoriches.
