Little Richard, My Legal Eagle and The Last Mohican are the three to concentrate on in this modest affair and the vote is given to Little Richard. The selection is dropped in trip here having disappointed last time out over 2m at Lingfield. He had previously run well when third behind Birth of the Blues on the same track and if he reproduce that effort here he will be hard to beat. My Legal Eagle won well over hurdles last time at Stratford but his form on the flat has only been moderate and the likelihood is that he will find at least one too good here. The Last Mohican has ability but has become largely frustrating, and as he has yet to break his duck after 40 attempts it is difficult to put him forward with any confidence. River Of Fire will have to improve significantly on his recent efforts to trouble the judge, so Little Richard is given the nod in a pretty desperate affair.
