Verdict

Two Left Feet gets the confident vote here with Inontime and House of Lords rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair second behind the highly regarded Al Samha last time out looks sure to have come on for the run and given nominal improvement he will be hard to beat. Imontime rates the main danger on his latest second behind Rapidity but he lacks the scope of the selection and is taken on with this in mind. House Of Lords is another that could go well as he is a well bred sort from a yard that can ready a newcomer so he should be watched in the market. Of the remainder Speyside is another that would have possibilities on breeding but he is bred to come into his own over a longer trip and for the winner we are happy to return to Two Left Feet who is taken to win this before going on to better things.
