Borehan has done everything asked of him in winning his two starts this season and the Michael Jarvis-trained colt should handle today's ground so gets the vote to complete a hat trick at the main expense of Obe Brave and Signor Peltro. The selection is closely matched with Signor Peltro on running at Haydock last time but is more likely to go on today's ground so can confirm their running last time. King Orchisios has not lived up to the high standards set by Kevin Ryan this term and may be best watched at present, while Loyal Royal looks to be plenty high enough in the weights at present. Orpsie Boy could be of interest tackling a softer surface for the first time and has to be considered a bigger threat than Roger Charlton's Strut on this ground. Mick Channon's Obe Brave is less exposed than most of these and should go on the ground but preference is for Boreham, who has done nothing wrong and may improve again for tackling a softer surface for the first time.
