Verdict

The feature race on the card has attracted a field of mainly out-of-form animals, but the string of duck eggs may disguise a potential shock winner. Finding it though is nigh on impossible and it is best to stick with those that have shown a bit of dash of late. Soller Bay has posted a couple of places of late and was good enough to win at Newmarket last season, while George Stubbs ran a blinder when second to Zonergem in the Tote Mail On Sunday Final at Ascot in September and was also narrowly denied when trying to make all on Lingfield¿s Polytrack last time. TEAMtalk fancy him to get the better of the only recent winner in the line-up, Kepler. Paul Cole, who trained George Stubbs before his recent move to Nick Littmoden is responsible for the three-year-old who scraped home by the minimum margin on his all-weather bow, and although that showed a return to form, it does not read as good as that of his former stable mate.
