Verdict
Downland, New Wish and Bollin Edward all hold claims in a very competitive event, but we will take a chance on Inter Vision. The selection makes a quick reappearance after making Bygone Days pull out all the stops at Ripon four days ago. That run followed an encouraging effort at Thirsk and he could be coming right back to his best. Downland will be a big threat to all, he has been scorching up the fibresand recently, but prior to that put in some very promising efforts on the turf. New Wish wasn't beaten far behind Summer Shades at Nottingham last time and may be another on the way back to his best. Bollin Edward is also worthy of a mention following his recent second to Headland at Thirsk, however, Inter Vision is well treated on his best form and he gets the verdict.
