Verdict
Multiple Choice is the best of these and he can beat Menai Straights and Compassion. Nick Littmoden's charge was running in listed races last term and while he has struggled to win this term, this does not look the strongest of events. Menai Straights has no problems with trip, ground and track and he did account for Compassion in a non-claimer. He holds solid claims if Multiple Choice fluffs his lines. Garnock Venture's best form has been on the all-weather and he is probably better over further. La Calera had some form on the all-weather in Germany and is potentially unexposed. Firebird Rising hails from a yard that is at least in some assemblance of form so should be watched in the market. Chubbes has proven incredibly expensive to follow since leaving Roger Charlton's stable and his dramatic plummet down the handicap says it all. A modest affair in which Multiple Choice is given the most tentative of selections.
