Market Puzzle probably brings the best recent form into this race and won't mind the easy going having won on soft at Yarmouth in August and on good to soft at Haydock three weeks ago. Mark Brisbourne's four-year-old may struggle to confirm Yarmouth running with VISIONS OF JOHANNA, however, with Richard Guest's gelding now 20lb better off for a five-length defeat. Leading lady amateur Serena Brotherton rides the latter today and the partnership can land the spoils ahead of Dean Iarracht and Tropical Duke, who are closely matched on a recent run at Beverley. Media Stars has won over C&D and may be the pick of the remainder.
