A tricky handicap chock full of horses who are capable at this level but much depends on their focus on the day. With that in mind only a speculative play on A PLACE APART is forward on this occasion. The fact that connections are keeping the selection busy is taken as a clue to his well being and he gets the nod as the one to with in preference to Glenbank King and the lightly weighted Pivot Bridge.
