This looks very competitive and the leading lights are Tiber Tilly, Kineta and Halfwaytoparadise with the vote given to Tiber Tilly. The selection is a likeable filly and she scored nicely last time on this track when getting the better of Whistleupthewind. She does have a penalty for that win but she looked like one to stay on the right side of that day and from a good draw she should be capable of defying a penalty to go in again. Kineta has shown some fair form and she should be seen in a better light now that she returns to handicapping after a fair effort in a maiden at Kempton last time. Halfwaytoparadise showed some improved form for her new stable last time when finishing second behind Macedon. The drop in trip should suit and she is respected from a good draw. Mick Channon does well with his runners here so Fun Time is another to consider, but for the winner we will stick with Tiber Tilly.
