Verdict

Afandem is clearly at home on any type of surface as he won on soft at Doncaster on debut and then on good to firm at Brighton. Kody Ridge has been knocking on the door and should be winning soon while Mister Blue Sky dotted up on soft going at Nottingham last month, though might be vulnerable on today's quicker surface. MONTATAIRE showed good pace to make all at Hamilton after a couple of decent efforts in novice company. Gerard Mosse has a couple of rides for Mark Johnston on this afternoon's card and can start off with a winner.
