Verdict

Bramcote Lorne, Tidy and Granary Girl make most appeal here and the vote is given to Tidy. Micky Hammond's 8-year-old finished in front of Bramcote Lorne here last time and he should be capable of confirming his superiority today. The worry is that he can be quite quirky, but nonetheless he is entitled to go close. Bramcote Lorne is the obvious danger as he was only collared close home last time and if he runs up to that mark then he would have an obvious chance. Granary Girl shaped with plenty of promise when last seen out as she was noted staying-on powerfully at the finish. She is dropped in trip tonight which might work against her, although she does have winning form over this course and distance. Pegasus Prince is returning from a break here and may be sharper for the run, so we will stick with Tidy who can sweep home to score.
