POKER SCHOOL has been a model of consistency all year and ran very respectably last time out at Cheltenham.

That race was run at a blistering pace and the pace held up, POKER SCHOOL doing the best of those held up in a race where conditions may have been sharp enough.

He tends to breast his fences a bit and at Cheltenham he got in close to a few which cost him momentum and ground. Today he runs over three and a half furlongs further on a flat track and should be more in his comfort zone. These are most probably his ideal conditions and I think he will gain a deserved win.

Get On The Yeager will have his fair share of supporters and if nicking an easy lead he will be very, very dangerous, however Indian Temple may see paid to that. I just feel the selection's form has more substance and makes him attractive at the odds.
