A tough race to call here for punters and as usual in these events the market will be very informative, but the principals look to be Transmission, Ruby Delta and Art Master and the tentative vote is given to Transmission. The selection was a good second under similar conditions behind Donegal last time out. That form looks rock solid in the context of this race and a reproduction of that effort should make him tough to beat. Ruby Delta rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Maddy, but all his best form is on faster ground and he is taken on with this in mind. Art Master is another worthy of respect on his debut second behind Hobby, especially as he looks sure to improve, but that form has since been let down. Terracos Do Pinhal is a well bred colt by Selkirk and hails from a yard that can ready a newcomer, so he should be watched in the market but he is bred to be suited by a longer trip in time and with this in mind for the winner we will return to Transmission.
