Call Me Waki can win this at the expense of Bachelor Party and Balian. The selection will not have to be a world beater to break his maiden tag here as it is a weak race. He has been a touch frustrating of late but has always come across one or two good horses. In this company he deserves the utmost respect. Bachelor Party is a newcomer coming from a yard that do well with their young stock so is worth noting as is Balian who has had his chances in the past and does deserve to win a race soon. He finished third to Gwilyn at Sandown last time out and if able to capitalize on that then he has to be short listed. But for the winner we return to Call Me Waki.
