Verdict
THEWAYTOSANJOSE looks the one to be on here, but there'll be supporters too of the other course winner Kiyari and Shaker Style. Sylvester Kirk's filly has plenty in hand at the weights and comes here in good form after narrowly winning here last month, off a much higher mark than when winning previously two races back at Southwell. She's a game sort, and James Doyle's certainly able to get a good tune out of her. Kiyari is among the more lightly raced ones here, and came from off the pace to win here last month too. She seems to be on an upward curve and a repeat success seems likely, if not tonight then sooner rather than later. Shaker Style had some trouble in running here last time out when finishing fourth, but that still represented his best run to date. The blinkers stay on after being introduced in place of a visor last time. Joint top weights More Tea Vicar and Duke of Normandy may find they've got too much to carry. The price may not be great, but our support would go with Thewaytosanjose.
