Chickado gets the narrow vote here with Glenviews Babalou and Fizzy Lizzy put forward as the main dangers. The selection is a course and distance winner and although he was disappointing in a claimer at Southwell last time, he wasn't beaten all that far and in this grade he should be able to make his presence felt today. Fizzy Lizzy is held by our selection on a run here last month, and although she was bitterly disappointing last time in a handicap, this is nowhere near as competitive and she looks to have solid place claims. Glenviews Babalou has got some fair form but she may be better over further and for that reason she is best watched today. The other with a chance is Wings of Morning, but she has been a little disappointing of late and for the winner we will return to Chickado.
