The newcomers Tribal Suspect and Teutonic will not have to be anything special to figure in this weak affair but we will take a chance with Private Jessica, Katie Kai looks best of the others. Richard Guest's four-year-old hasn't shown her true ability on her last three outings. However the ground has been against her and on this much easier surface today she could bounce back to the form she showed in early April when chasing home Allegedly Red at Bangor. Katie Kai looks a big threat to the selection having taken on much better opposition this season, including Bollin Annabel and Millagros. Tribal Suspect and Teutonic should be monitored closely in the betting ring but with plenty of rain falling the last couple of days we should see improved form for Private Jessica who is a confident choice.
