Polar Gale gets the vote here with Mister Magnum and Sea Cadet rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Capiroska and although rising in the weights he will not mind any rain that arrives and he is taken to win again. Mister Magnum rates the main danger as he also won last time out when beating Dreamaker. However, that form has since been let down and he looks vulnerable under his penalty. Sea Cadet is another worthy of respect on his latest second behind Nutrino he looks sure to be suited by this longer trip and should be watched in the market. Of the remainder, Hollows Mist could go well if his jumping holds up while Low Reactor is from an in-form yard and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to the progressive Polar Gale.
