This is obviously a race to treat with a degree of caution, but the booking of 7lb conditional Garry Berridge for Reno is enough to give the selection to the Guy Reed-owned three-year-old. Kaiser and Silver Coin are others who should be monitored in the betting and have to be considered - although King Revo will also be very interesting in this company if he is set to swerve his entry for a similar contest at Leicester on Thursday. Chemicalattraction, although no world-beater, has experience in this sphere and could give them all something to think about if he runs up to his best. However, like the majority of the field, he will do well to concede weight to Reno and he may find the filly's allowance his undoing here - especially as Berridge's claim effectively leaves her on a racing weight of 10st. Reno also has some valuable experience of the course and questions will surely have to be asked if, granted a clear round, she doesn't go close on these terms.
