Stuart Edmunds is enjoying a fine season with a good strike rate. The yard place their charges with precision and NOW MCGINTY is taken to follow up this month's course and distance success. Well backed to do so, the gelding always looked in control of what was a decent contest and scored with something to spare. He can repeat the dose despite being hit with a 12lb rise for that victory as further progress is anticipated. Aliandy is interesting after a break so watch the market, whilst Mahlervous, unlucky last time, recent scorer Galactic Power and the very lightly-raced Sergeant Brody are also noted and preferred in that order. Kings Watch could prove a big-priced outsider to keep an eye on, especially with the future in mind.
