Another poor handicap to bring proceedings to a close and the tentative vote goes to Route Barree while others to consider include Gregorian, Monsal Dale and Belinda. Simon Dow's gelding has held his form well of late with a string of respectable efforts including a close fourth off a similar mark in a competitive amateurs event over this trip at Lingfield last month. The son of Exit To Nowhere confirmed his well being when runner-up in a seller on a return visit to the Surrey track and should go close off his current mark if handling the Fibresand surface. Gregorian was a smooth winner of a Muselburgh claimer last time but had shown only moderate form on this surface previously and may prove vulnerable under a 7lb penalty. Monsal Dale ran well behind a useful sort at Warwick last time and rates a big danger returned to a track that suits while Belinda has place claims on the pick of this season's efforts but Route Barree looks the percentage call under Darryll Holland.
