Points of View, Suzi Spends and Moment's Notice are the three to concentrate on here and the vote is given to Points Of View. The selection is a Derby entry and although that looks a little ambitious, he certainly won nicely at Lingfield last time when beating Polar Annie. He has a penalty for that win but he is clearly an improving type and it is unlikely to stop him. Suzi Spends is another last-time-out winner and the step-up in trip seemed to work the oracle for her at Windsor when she beat Bavarian Nordic. She has run well here in the past and she should be good enough to make the frame tonight. Moment's Notice shaped with plenty of promise when third behind Sassy Gal at Kempton last time, but he did give the impresson that he will do better when he is upped in distance. Elusive Deal does have ability but she is not the most straightforward and we are happy to return to Points Of View as the one to beat.
