Rowan Pursuit can land this claimer at the main expense of Mamichor and Fire At Will. The selection finished fifth behind Nikki Bea last time and prior to that he had raced in a competitive handicap. This will not take a great deal of winning and from a plum draw he should be able to make his presence felt in this lowly grade. Fire At Will finished in mid-division at Lingfield last time in this grade but has only managed one career win so far. He is entitled to get competitive in this weak contest but the percentage call is to take him on. Mamichor shaped with some promise in a handicap last time but he has yet to win a race and he will need to build on that improved effort to score. Colonel Cotton finished down the field behind Mamichor last time so looks opposable, and we will return to Rowan Pursuit to land the prize.
