Border Owl is the form pick to land this at the expense of Cheney Manor and Unbiased. The selection has been knocking on the door of late without getting his head in front. This does look like one of his easiest task to date so if he is able to recapture his best form he could prove difficult to beat. Cheney Manor has run with credit this season without ever troubling the judge. He has an each way chance of running into the frame but he may fair better in handicaps from now on. Unbiased showed promise on his debut at Newmarket when finishing fifth of ten behind Fanjura and will be one to note in the betting market, but for the winner we return to Border Owl.
