Katiypour, Takes Tutu And Smith N Allan Oils are the three to concentrate on here and we will side with the first named. This eight-year-old is returning from a five month break but does go well fresh. The last time he raced was over the ten furlong trip here when third to Compton Drake. Today's distance will not be a problem as he was leading as they turned into the home straight and he looks the one they all have to beat. Takes Tutu made Mr Lambros pull out all the stops here last time and must be considered a major threat. Meanwhile Smith N Allan Oils hails from a stable hitting top form and although he hasn't won for some time he does look on a very handy mark. Boundless Prospect is another with strong claims in a very open event, but Katiypour has the best overall form and gets the verdict
