There is sure to be no hanging about here, which will suit Linning Wine, who is selected today in preference to Massey, who has solid claims at the weights but has to conclusively prove this tip is ideal for her. Point Of Dispute is another big danger that has to be respected in this company, as this trip is absolutely ideal for the nine-year-old, who has dropped to a very favourable mark these days. The drop into this company almost initiated a halt to his losing streak on his penultimate start and it will be very interesting to see how the market speaks about him this afternoon. Tayif can go well for each-way players, who are willing to forgive this individual his many quirks. He has done well since joining his current yard though and, again, the market will give us a good clue towards his chance today. Nevertheless, the recent form shown by Linning Wine does look to be a bit stronger than that of his main rivals and, as such, he is fancied to be too strong for the rest whilst he is in such good heart.
