A wide open contest in which many have chances on there best form but the main protagonists appear to be Armagnac, Cd Europe, Blue Spinnaker and Dorchester and we will take a chance on Cd Europe. The gelding from the Kevin Ryan yard has had no luck in running of late and he is sure to get the end to end gallop which he needs to be seen at his best in this big field Armagnac defeated Blackheath in good style at Haydock last time out but he will find this much harder under his penalty. Blue Spinnaker won a small race in game fashion last time out but he appears to have plenty of weight for what he has actually achieved for this his handicap debut. Dorchester is another that could go well he has dropped to a handy mark will like there ground and his latest fourth behind Frizzante suggested his turn was near. Of the remainder Hawk is from a shrewd yard and is worth a cautionary look in the market, the same comment applies to Full Spate.
