Course and distance winner Wasalat gets the vote in this competitive handicap ahead of Lunar Promise and Tous Les Deux. The selection won quite cosily under today's pilot Paul Hanagan here three weeks ago, and could easily be capable of running up a sequence of victories. Despite pulling hard, Tous Les Deux ran out a comfortable winner of a handicap here on Tuesday but could find this tougher and so is passed over. Perhaps of more interest may be Ian Wiliams's Lunar Promise who returns to the flat after a disappointing debut over hurdles. He returns from a lengthy absence, however if stripping fit he could prove to be the main danger to the selection, based on his good second to Prime Contender in October of 2005. However, it may be best to side with the safe option of proven performer Wasalat and she gets the vote.
