Mill By The Stream, Spence Appeal and High Chart look the three to concentrate on in this competitive handicap and the vote is given to Mill By The Stream. The selection won well last time out when beating Bohamian Spring. Granteed that was in a sell but he won with plenty in hand and off what looks a fair mark he is taken to score. Spence Appeal rates the main danger as he has been running well without winning and he was a fair second behind Terminate last time but he just have the impression he was in the handicappers grip so for that reason he is opposed. High Chart is another that could go well but he was slightly disappointing last time for no reason so he can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder Manic is from a shrewd yard and is sure to appreciate this longer trip so he is worth a cautionary look in the market but in a tough race to call for the winner we return to Mill By The Stream.
