Exit Smiling, Lauren Louise and Keresforth look the three to concentrate on in another wide open affair and the nomination is given to Lauren Louise. The selection was disappointing last time out behind Savoy Chaple but his stable are in better form and it is interesting that his top yard is persevering with him this looks his easiest task to date and from what looks a good draw he is given one last chance to get his head in front. Exit Smiling rates the main danger on his latest third behind Guildenstern and despite top weight he will not be far away if he runs up to that mark. Keresforth is another worthy of respect as he was doing all his best work at the finish when fourth behind Goldhill Prince and looks sure to be suited by this longer trip. Mill By The Stream is from a shrewd yard and is less exposed than most so should be monitored in the market. Of the remainder Fire At Will is dropping in grade and is another that could go well but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Lauren Louise.
