In a tricky affair, we will side with Mine Behind ahead of Judd Street and, possibly, Cyclical. Obe Gold is a very good class handicapper on his day and has run well from this mark in the past. A return to his Group 2 winning form of last year would give The Kiddykid a chance, although more recent efforts have not been so good. If Paradise's best form of 2005 gives hope, although he has not won at today's trip. Judd Street could be open to improvement at today's trip, but Zowington has yet to build on his Epsom win. One More Round seems a light of former years, Idle Power needs a career-best effort, Cyclical would be interesting if recapturing his juvenile promise, King's Caprice is not far above a winning mark and has form at today's trip, Mine Behind is closing in on a winning mark and ran well behind Firenze at Goodwood last time, while the others seem to have to find a few pounds of improvement in order to win today. After all of that, it still remains a tough race, with the vote, once again, going to Mine Behind.
