A wide open bumper rounds off the card and as usual in these types of events the market will be all important but the principals look to be Lord Kernow Flyingwithoutwings and Accumulus and the vote is given to Flyingwithoutwings. The selection was a fair third on his debut behind Swaythe. He is sure to have learnt from the experience and ass he is bred to go with cut in the ground he looks the one to be on. Kernow rates the main danger on his third behind Sunley Shines but that was on good to firm ground and at likely odds he looks worth opposing on this completely different surface. Accumulus is another that could go well on his latest third behind Schumann his yard are in better form and it would be no surprise if he improved again.Of the remainder Benjamin Buckram is another from a yard that does well in this sphere and could go well but in a race that throws up more questions than answers and where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Flyingwithoutwings.
