A competitive small-field novice in which it may pay to side with ARCADE ATTRACTION. A winner over hurdles in May, he’s performed with credit over fences subsequently and, with his yard amongst the winners, he’s expected to be thereabouts again. Island Nation did plenty in front on his latest start but rates a player, whilst Beholden has the ability to figure if putting it all together.

SEE THE SEA scored by a wide margin under this rider off the same mark at Ludlow 8 days ago, so she’s a straightforward choice to go in again. Get Back Get Back is also turned out before reassessed, and he’s the main danger ahead of the reappearing Strong Glance, who drops in grade.

STRIKE THE FLINT beat ordinary opposition at Plumpton last month, but this race doesn’t look to have much depth to it either, so the percentage call is that she’ll have enough to follow up.

The two that stand out are JONY MAX and O’Faolains Lad, both of whom remain open to improvement in this sphere. The latter is not passed over lightly on the back of his Newton Abbot victory, but Jony Max took a big step forward when going close at Warwick and, with this stiffer test expected to be right up his street, he gets the nod. Write It Down is best of the rest.
