Mr Rev should make a bold bid from the front and Annes Rocket seems sure to run another solid race but it may be worth taking a chance with IGUACU. The selection has yet to finish in the money in nine starts and has plenty to prove even allowing for a more promising run last time. That performance was at Southwell so he needs to prove that he can build on that back on grass but it was just his second start for this trainer who has proved adept at placing his horses so we'll take a chance with Iguacu. Mr Rev is in good form and should ensure that this is run at a decent clip which will help Wrighty Almighty whose best form is over further and who could find the line coming too soon. Annes Rocket went close behind My Flame on his penultimate start before winning at Warwick; he's been raised by 3lbs for that win but should give another good account. Colombard rates a mention but probably needs to find a little more than he did at Nottingham and we'll award our vote to Iguacu.
