Ralphy Boy won at Musselburgh at the start of last month but all of his best form is over further than this. Best Trip's latest win was over 7f but he is a previous course and distance winner and he'll appreciate any further rain. It's two years since Half A Billion last scored but he's fallen to a fair mark and caught the eye at Catterick on his reappearance. Can You Conga is another nicely treated at present but this looks a good opportunity for SOUL BROTHER to open his seasonal account. He might have preferred better ground but will handle the surface and his latest third at Redcar came in a better race than this.
