In a difficult race to access it is probably best to use the market as the best guide with plenty of inexperienced runners up against the more experienced sorts in poor form. Preference is for the Andrew Slattery-trained MAYSONETTE who has proved his liking for this C&D. Nigg Bay, The Phantom Punch and Dermot Welds Shamad can all go well here and fight for the minor honours.
