McEldowney, Tequila Sheila and Lady Hopeful look to be the principles in the opener and the vote is given to Tequila Sheila. The selection is owned by golfer Lee Westwood and she is a game sort who really caught the eye with a sound effort when defeating Lincolneurocruiser over this course and distance last time. She is well-regarded by her trainer Karl Burke and she is given the confident nomination. McEldowney rates the main danger as this colt has done little wrong in his three starts to date. He looks the type who could do well in nurseries and with conditions to suit he will not be far away at the finish. Lady Hopeful did not have the speed to get into the race at Chester last time over 5 furlongs when well beaten, and she will do better now that she is stepped back up in trip. No Commision has shown a fair level of form and is another that might be capable of going well, although he does look a little exposed and for the winner we return to Tequila Sheila.
