Look Busy, Fat Boy and Tajdeef are the trio to look at in this competitive affair and the in form Look Busy can come out on top. Tajdeef has finished runner-up on his two starts to date in similar Listed company. He travelled well at Newbury last time but failed to quicken and looked one paced. He re-opposes the winner on the same terms and there seems no reason why he should turn the tables. Fat Boy will be a popular choice having won that Newbury contest and he has now won three of his last five and is proven at this level. He concedes weight here though, and we gained the impression that he looked a little vulnerable despite winning at Newbury. He is taken on. Placed twice in Listed company last year, Look Busy has stepped up on that form this season with a fine win in a Chester handicap and then took a conditions contest in impressive fashion at Beverley, relishing the uphill finish over five furlongs. Yet to win over this distance, this easy six furlongs should not be a problem and Look Busy can maintain his progression, having earned half of trainer Alan Berry's wins for the season.
