PHILFIG shaped with plenty of promise on his racecourse debut here last month and can break his duck with improvement expected. Stable Boy Kelly and Paddy Kunuckles rate best of the rest.
ITS BUSINESS TIME deserves his place in this company following a recent C&D win and he can go from strength-to-strength with confidence very much restored. Up Above and Second And One are others to note.
BEDROCK BLUES got the better of Bryan Kicks here in a similar race recently and should confirm those placings if in a similar mood. Others of interest include Stout Hope and Prince Raffie.
BISTINEAU went agonisingly close here in a similar claimer the last day and should go one better if able to repeat that level of performance. Mostly Love and Meesh can also make the frame.
NEW MANDATE remains relatively unexposed after just four career starts and he will relish this drop in class, bidding to regain the winning thread. Mightylover and Four Reds complete the shortlist.
She's Saephansound is better than her last run suggests and would be a big threat if back on song, but the safest option appears to be MISS WOODS. The selection recorded the highest last speed figure when landing a similar C&D event with a bit in hand and a repeat performance should suffice. Runaway Dunne rates best of the remainder.
Only a neck separated Gypsy Warrior and CROWN'S DOMINION when the former scored over C&D in September and they can fight it out for the gold medal again tonight, but the latter has since come out and sluiced in over this C&D and he is taken to turn the tables this time. The eased-in-grade Special Action completes the shortlist.
Following a taking debut success, SHOTGUN CITY improved to pick up the bronze medal over this C&D last month and, with further progress expected, he looks the one to beat tonight. Bruce's Choice was well behind the selection in seventh that day but has since filled the runner-up spot over 6f here, two lengths ahead of Charging Order in third, and they can give the selection most to think about.
Having recorded the highest last speed figure when narrowly touched off over 6f here in this grade, APRILMAYJUNE can make the most of this slight drop in trip to go one better tonight, possibly at the main expense of Mo's Mo's Kitty and More Is More.
