It should pay to stick with those who have shown some form lately. Clergyman potentially faces his third race in four days. If his trainer feels he is up to it then he would be hard to overlook over the same trip and off the same mark as when successful on Friday. La Fortuna was successful in this grade last time and another strongly run race seems likely. Blistering Dancer has been in good form at Southwell but he has proved himself on the polytrack too and he has run well enough in this grade to earn serious consideration. However, marginal preference is for NOBLE DEED who was not beaten far last time given the issues he had at the start. His previous C&D effort, when again unlucky, would be more than good enough to land this.
