It's difficult to get excited about many of these. ANTON DOLIN is probably the form pick but is hardly consistent and having his first run since finishing third on soft going at Ludlow in February. Blinkers replace the usual cheekpieces on Brinestine after a poor run at Warwick while there's no guarantee that John Biscuit will reproduce an improved effort at Wincanton, though he did at least complete which proved beyond Glimpse Of Gold. Marley Joe looks one to swerve at present.
