TINKERBELLE has the right profile for this contest and is selected ahead of Key Of Fortune and Strikemaster amongst others. A number in this field have the potential to step up on the form that they've shown to date now they move into handicap company over middle distances and the likes of Lambourn Genie, Vella, Gibson Square and New Adventure all require attention. Tinkerbelle was stepped up to ten furlongs for her handicap bow at Kempton but that trip appeared inadequate judged by the way that she stayed on strongly once the race was over. She's begun her career on a lowly mark and looks capable of progressing through the ranks. Key Of Fortune is a trifle more exposed but has run well the last twice and looks sure to be involved in the shake-up as could Strikemaster be if he can run up to the same level of his latest outing at Nottingham but his overall profile is offputting. Mr Prolific has claims if a poor run can be forgiven, Rebel Swing, Peintre D'Argent and Rebel Prince are all worthy of mention too but we believe that Tinkerbelle is the one to follow.
