Verdict

Trainer Ed Walker has a strong hand with unexposed SWINDLER who can be forgiven a slightly disappointing effort last time and bounce back. Alkaraama is highly respected if translating his AW form onto the turf whilst Open Wide should've won at Goodwood last time out and is very consistent.
