Another competitive affair but the TEAMtalk selection is Dene View. The gelding from the Richard Fahey yard won well in first time blinkers last time out at Catterick. That was in a conditional jockey race so he does not incur a 7lbs penalty, he will be hard to beat under similar conditions. Nip On rates the main danger he was a fair third last time out behind Maraud over a longer trip, if he reproduces that effort he will not be far away. However it is debatable as to weather the drop in trip will suit. Foggy is well in on his best form and shaped as if coming to hand when sixth last time out he is proven in the conditions and he could go well at a fair price. Jimmy Wiskers is from a yard beginning to hit form and if this gelding by Insan stays he will not be far away although his best form has been over shorter trips of late. Frankincense is still a maiden and is readily passed over as he is another doubtful stayer. Bisquet-de-Bouche looked a horse to follow a couple of seasons ago before being injured, but he showed signs of a revival last time out and he could be a value each-way bet.
