In a modest race, Acertrack looks to have leading claims, with the dangers given as Brigadier du Bois and Isam Top. The selection comes here on the back of a second to Barton Nic over course and distance. In our view, a repeat of that looks more than good enough to see him home today. Irish Fashion has yet to cut the mustard over fences, and One Of Them has yet to see them in public. However, Brigadier du Bois's form is more than good enough to warrant respect at this level. Isam Top also has enough form to be confident of bagging some money here, and he acts at this track, but, with the rest having a bit to prove, for the winner it is hard to get away from Acertrack.
