Talcen Gwyn, Linda Green and Namir are three against the field in a competitive finale and the tentative vote is given to Talcen Gwyn. The selection won well last time when beating Flying Tackle and although having a penalty for that wuin he again has conditions to suit and from a good draw he looks a value bet. Linda Green is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but she looks weighted up to her best and is also better with more cut in the ground. Namir would have chances on his best form but dissapointed for no apparent reason last time out so can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder King Egbert is from a yard in form and should be noted in the market while Drumming Party looks on a handy mark and couldgo well at a price but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Talcen Gwyn.
