Another wide open handicap here for punters to fathom with not much between many of the runners. However the principals look to be Top Of The Left, Lesdream and Saby and we will side with Lesdream. The gelding from the Jimmy Frost yard improved through out last season and ended it with a good win over Happy Hussar, and although he has never won over a trip this far before he is taken to score as he could still be ahead of the handicapper. Top Of The Left rates there main danger he looked an improved performer when second behind Petrula last time and with conditions again in his favour he will not be far away. Saby is also worthy of respect he was a fair fourth behind Celtic Star last time and has definite place claims off the same mark here. Of the remainder Tosawi is a course and distance winner that is on a fair mark but in a wide open affair we will side with Lesdream.
