PETTOCHSIDE completed a double on soft ground at Goodwood and, though having a bit to find on official ratings, has been running better than most of these so gets the vote. Head Space comes out best at the weights and has to be a threat as he landed a handicap at Newbury in the summer. Ocean Legend has become a specialist on the all-weather these days, though did manage to win a seller here in the summer. Commanche has managed to win seven times at a lowly level so can never be dismissed.
