A shortlist of Burza, Noble Dictator, Zim Ho, Here Comes Danny, Everaard and CHEAP THRILLS is headed by the latter who should be at home on the forecast quick ground. The selection was second last time out at Warwick on lightning quick ground which was a better performance than her previous third at Kempton. She still looks to be fairly-treated on a mark of 71 and there may still be more to come from this well-bred daughter of Bertolini. Zim Ho was a winner when last seen as was Everaard (the only last-time-out winners in the race), and the latter looks to be getting the hang of things now. Blinkers are tried on Tidal Force, a visor on Caerus and Perfect Class, whilst the patience is being tested of supporters of Arctic Freedom. Money for Here Comes Danny again would be interesting after his mini-break, whilst the market may also help for determining the chances of Noble Dictator, Calypso Girl and Temperence Hall. This is a very tricky finale for punters but the most tentative of votes is given to Cheap Thrills.
