Red Current is in top form and is fancied to complete the hat-trick at the main expense of Chant De Guerre and Doubly Guest. The selection was given a great ride last time out by the beautifully bred William Carson but regular jockey Liam Keniry returns today hopeful of continuing his winning streak. Quick ground suits and unpenalised for that win last time out (apprentice race), he can score again. Chant De Guerre is a course and distance winner and may well be suited by the drop back to ten furlongs today, whilst Cow Girl is consistent but continues to find a couple too good. Seaflower Reef and Spirit Of Adjisa are both still relatively unexposed and warrant checks in the betting, whilst Doubly Guest is back on a winning mark following some average efforts and if back on song then he could go well. At a price Joyful Tears could run into a place, however it is Red Current who is fancied to win again.
