Abandon looks the one to be with here and he gets our vote to get the better of Art Investor and Aizen Myoo rated as the main dangers. The selection is a half-sister to the smart Tawqeet and she stayed on well on her debut when second behind Shout. She was a bit green that day so with more to come she has to get the vote. Art Investor is the most exposed runner in the field but he was a good second behind Melpomene at Southwell last time. The worry with him is that he doesn't tend to find much for pressure and as he has had plenty of chances we are happy to take him on. Aizen Myoo has got some fair form in Ireland and it will be interesting to see how he fares on his all-weather bow so he is one to note in the market. Executive Paddy is an interesting newcomer and is one to note in the market, but for the winner we will stick with Abandon.
