Paint The Star is certainly on the upgrade and should go well on this hat-trick seeking venture against her elders, whilst Shady Mccoy is another after the three-timer, although the latter does look rather more exposed than his younger opponent. Captain Marmalade came good at Chepstow last time and should progress again in what looks quite an open heat. Timothy Jarvis has his string in excellent heart at present and PRINCE REGAL will hopefully offer some value on the back of two creditable runner-up efforts at Windsor and Nottingham last month. He should go off at an each-way price, whilst Joe Packet looks best of the more exposed brigade.
