The usual mixed bag in a race of this nature with some newcomers along with a few from bumpers and a couple that look ahead of the field in terms of experience and the ability to progress. It’s hard to see any of those from bumpers or the new comers being good enough although with the Karl Burke stable having won this last year his debutante Born To Be Alive is respected. Fiendish representing Mark Johnston has not progressed as well as looked likely but she is well entered up in handicaps over the next few days after this. Sketch Book Venue impressed on her debut at Redcar and will know more this time around but the extra experience of ARCHIBELLE just edges the vote here.
