A poor seller here but something has to win and the principals look to be Green Prospect, Earlsfield Raider and Blushing Hilary and the narrow vote is given to Green Prospect. The selection won well last time out when beating Matinee Idol and if he runs up to that mark again he will be hard to beat. Earlsfield Raider has the ability to win this but he does not like putting his head in front and at likely odds he looks worth opposing. Blushing Hilary was third in a better race behind Knockavilla last time out. This represents a drop in class and she should be watched in the market. Dance World is another with place claims but barley sees out the trip. Of the remainder, Tyssac looks vulnerable under top weight and for the winner we return to Green Prospect.
