A seller that may not take much winning and the tentative vote goes to Gifted Heir ahead of Give Evidence and Hamilton House. The selection recorded his first success three runs ago when winning a handicap at Kempton. That wasn't the greatest of races but he then disappointed next tiem up. Following that poor run however, he ran well in a claimer last time out and having run well on quick ground in the past he is fancied to win today. Give Evidence seems to have improved just slightly for the application of a visor but he should appreciate this drop in class and can run his race, whilst Hamilton House actually finished in front of him last time out but is now 1lb worse off at the weights. Massams Lane is unexposed and should relish the drop in grade as he has shown some ability in his three starts to date, however whilst Three No Trumps could run into a place, we are happy to give the tentative nod to Gifted Heir.
