The three joint topweights do appear to be in the grip of the handicapper so it may be best to look to look elsewhere. Media Guest was perhaps unfortunate not to finish closer last time and gives the distinct impression he is better than he's shown on either start this season. He has had wind surgery and a gelding operation this year and is one to keep an eye on. Molly Shaw and Heer's Sadie both obliged over course and distance when last seen and can feature but if Sean Kirrane can keep the good traveller that is MORTY under sufficient restraint, the gelding should go close off his current mark. Elakazaam could well benefit from this drop in class.
