Drifting Gold gets the confident vote here with Ioweyou and Nou Camp rating the main dangers. The selecton was a good second behind Dramatic last time out and with the drop in trip looking to be in his favour he will be hard to beat from a good draw. Ioweyo9u rates the main danger on his best form but he has had plenty of chances off similar marks without taking one and again he looks opposable. Nou Camp is another that could go well as he has dropped to a handy mark but he often finds less than expected off the bridle. Of the remainder Pretty Miss is from a yard in form and could go well at a price but she now looks in the handicapers grip and for the inner we return to Drifting Gold.
