A particularly low-grade affair with ready preference for PALAZZO who bounced back to winning ways over this trip at Southwell last time out. The front two drew over five-length clear of the field then, so a 5lb rise doesn't seem harsh and he has a progressive profile which can't be said for many of his rivals. The main danger to the selection looks to be Dragons Will Rise who posted a career-best effort to finish third over C&D last month. He needs to back that up, but if able to do so he will be thereabouts. Despite his inconsistent record, Ritchie Star has proved he has the ability with two C&D runner-up efforts to his name and can make the frame once again.
