Not many that you can leave out of the equation here in a very competitive three-year-old handicap with the consistent Merlin and Dakota Gold two to note. Ultimate Avenue has yet to really prove himself over this trip but has the look of a sprinter if he gets a strongly run race with Victory Angel another worthy of close attention. TOMMY TAYLOR has the look of one though who has further improvement in him and he did look desperately unlucky last time out when hampered in the closing stages after travelling like a dream throughout the race.
