Arresting caused a bit of a shock when successful over course and distance last time and can follow up this afternoon, Acceleration and Toulouse Express may provide most danger. The selection returned from a year off to easily beat a competitive field of handicappers. There are two ways he could go now, either improve for the run or bounce and we expect the former to happen. Acceleraton was pulled up on his return to the track here last month, but he put in some decent performances last season and gets in here on a decent mark. Toulouse Express hit winning form at Market Rasen last time, impressively beating Dalriath. A similar effort today should see him involved in the finish. Andre Chenier is another worthy of a mention, but there could be plenty more to come from Arresting and he gets our vote.
