Special Order gets the vote here with Mister Fizzbomb and Plemont Bay rated as the main dangers. The selection hails from a leading yard and he has been contesting some stronger races than this. He is unproven on this ground but it might actually show him in a better light and he looks to have been found a good opportunity here to get his head in front. Mister Fizzbomb rates the main danger as he is another that has been running in stronger races than this. However, he was well beaten at Wetherby last time and he is beginning to look exposed so we will take him on. Plemont Bay only beat one home in a similar race to this last time but this contest is so poor that he might be capable of claiming some place money today with ground conditions in his favour. Norfolk Jive hails from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market, but we will side with Special Order who looks to have been well placed here and he is taken as the one to beat.
