A wide open bumper rounds off the card and as usual in these types of events the market will prove all important but the principals look to be FirstFlor, Here¿s Johnny and Brandeston Ron and the vote goes to Here¿s Johnny. The selection has shown enough in two runs to suggest he can win a race of this nature and a reproduction of his latest second behind Royal Paradise would make him hard to beat. FirstFlor rates the main danger on his latest second behind Martha¿s Kinsman but again he may be found out by his penalty. Brandeston Ron is from a yard that does well in these events but showed little on his debut. Field Of Blue and Follow The Bear are newcomers to note in the market but may be seen to better effect over a longer trip while Pat N Dec is another that catches the eye on breeding but for the winner we return to Here¿s Johnny.
