GEEZERS COLOURS is the stand out at the weights and is taken to get the better of Trade Centre and Obe Gold. The selection is having just his third run since July and his second for a new yard but he has an obvious chance at the figures if able to run up to his best. He has plenty of course form to his name over seven and is entitled to go close so may be worth another chance despite a poor run on Monday. Trade Centre has been done no favours by the draw given that he seems to show his best form when ridden prominently but he's probably capable of taking a hand. He finished a long way in front of the selection on Monday when also drawn high and has to be feared. Obe Gold ran a couple of sound races last month and was a winner at the track in March on his only previous visit so he has to rate highly whilst Trimlestown and Waterloo Dock possess minor claims but the vote's awarded to Geezers Colours.
