A wide-open handicap here and many would have chances on their best form but the principals look to be,Potts of Magic Sandywell George and Wild Tempo and the vote is given to the last named. The selection has dropped to a handy mark and has conditions to suit and although he was disappointing last time out but the return to this trip is sure to suit and he looks a value bet in an open affair.. Potts Of Magic rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind behindClassical Ben. This faster surface is sure to suit and she should be noted in the market. Sandywell George is another that could go well but he was disappointing for no apparent reason last time out so can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder Cap Classique showed improved form to be third behind Classical Ben last time and could run well at a price but in a race that throws up more questions than answers and when stakes should be kept to as minimum for the winner we return to Wild Tempo
