Verdict
ESSGEE NICS has been winning at Wolverhampton but could be worth sticking with in such a weak contest despite a 4lb penalty. Born To Sire and Telekinetic have something to find with the selection on recent form but Plansina scored over track and trip back in May and can race off a lower mark. Turn Of Phrase went close at Nottingham in June but has disappointed since and the remainder are even harder to recommend.
