Red O'Donnell, Earvee and Colinette are three against the field in this poor seller and the tentative nomination is given to Red O'Donnell. The selection was a fair fifth in a better grade behind More Equity last time out and under conditions that suit he need only run up to that mark to win this with a little in hand. Earvee rates the main danger as he is dropping in class and trip and he is on better ground, so he should be watched in the market even if his overall profile leaves him with a little to find. Colinette is another worthy of respect as she has some placed form on the flat and hails from a yard that has a good record at the track. Her best form is with more cut in the ground though and she looks opposable on that basis. Scuzme and Gracialina are others that have shown glimmers of ability in the past but are far from consistent and for the winner we return to Red O'Donnell, who has plenty going for him today.
