Reelinga gets the vote here with Another Game and Share My Dream rated as the main dangers. The selection was disappointing over fences last time at Taunton but he had previously gone close over hurdles on the same track when chasing home Prince Dundee. This race will not take much winning and he looks the percentage call. Another Gale ran a fair race last time at Taunton but his overall form is pretty moderate and the yard are hardly firing on all cylinders at present. Share My Dream was well beaten last time but he is eased in grade today and that should give him place claims. However, his best form is with plenty of cut in the ground and we are prepared to take him on. In Hope would have to improve significantly to get competitive and in a dreadful race we will side with Reelinga to land the spoils.
