Verdict

PARTY IN THE PARK is selected as the one to be with here. Shake On It and Red Current are others with sound claims in a race like this. Red Current handles an undulating surface and has gone well here in the past. He can flatter to deceive, though, as he often finds little when he comes off the bridle. Shake On It is likely to get the strong pace he needs and can get involved in the tick-end of the action; assuming he runs to his best. His has won at Lingfield but it has to be a concern that his best recent efforts have been at Kempton. Therefore, it may not be such a hindrance for Party In The Park to make his course debut today. A good performance over today's trip on this surface will open new avenues to explore with this Elite Racing Club-owned gelding, who can give his numerous connections plenty of fun if, as is expected, he relishes trying a mile again today.
