Coolnagorna is from a yard in top form and made a pleasing debut this season when second behind Silken Thyne on that evidence he is the TEAMtalk selection. The gelding is sure to have come on for the run and will be hard to beat. Stennikov rates the main danger he is held in high regard and was a fair second at Market Rasen on his hurdling debut behind Formal Bid who has since franked the form. Tana River is one of there least exposed in the field having only had one run when a pleasing second behind the highly regarded Supreme Prince he will know more now and he has definite place claims. Supreme Hill was a fair bumper horse last season and this gelding by Supreme Leader is sure to have being well schooled, and any market confidence could be significant. The Full Nelson would also have a chance on his old form but he may need this run after a long absence. Too Far To Bridge has a good pedigree and is one to keep an eye on what ever happens today. The remainder will probably come on for the experience.
