Verdict
Weaverley Road, Easter Ogil and Gemi Bed are three against the field in a wide open affair and we will side with Easter Ogil who was a good second behind Tight Squeeze last time, he is sure to get the fast pace which he needs and with conditions in his favour he will be hard to beat. Weaverley Road won well last time out when defeating Bucks but that was over two miles and the drop in trip is not sure to suit. Gemi Bed is well weighted on his best turf form and is from a shrewd yard so is worth noting in the market but he is unproven on the surface. Of the remainder Lanos is another that goes well over course and distance but he looks in the handicappers grip so we are happy to side with Easter Ogil.
