Verdict
Buy On The Red, Wychbury and Get To The Point look to be the principles in this opening race on the card and we will give the nomination to Buy On The Red. The selection looks to be going the right way and has found just one too good on each of his two starts this season. He was racing on soft ground last time out at Thirsk when narrowly beaten by Tizzy's Law, and with conditions more in his favour here he is taken to score. Wychbury is making his seasonal reappearance after showing promise on all of his starts last year. He will be suited by the step up in trip and as he looks a smart prospect it would be no surprise to see him go close. Get To The Point had to overcome a wide draw to run Primo Way close at Southwell and he is another that is well worth considering, but for the winner we return to Buy On The Red.
