Verdict
Marjorie Fife’s two runners are clear of the rest on today’s terms though it’s a tricky choice between them. Guvenor's Choice has the best chance at the weights and stays this far but arrives in woeful form while MY AMIGO has been in much better form but over shorter trips. A chance is taken on the latter having placed over a mile here the last twice. Max Guevara looks next best on last month’s second in a seller at Leicester but the remainder are hard to recommend and the newcomers Tiffindell and Ethics Boy won’t need to be above average to figure.
