Pax appears to be returning to form and gets the nod over Whitethorne and Jubilee Street. Dandy Nicholls is once again in great form and this eight-year-old looks primed to add to the trainer's recent successes. He finished an excellent third behind Undeterred at Catterick last time and, off a ten pound lower mark than when last successful he does hold very strong claims. Whitethorne has been a model of consistency and put in another solid display last time when chasing home Ballycroy Lad at Ayr, he will be hard to keep out of the money this afternoon. Jubilee Street returns from a short holiday and has each-way claims on early season form. In a very open affair Divinsky and Kareeb are two others to consider for each-way purposes, but Pax is back on a decent mark and can give Victoria Behan another victory.
