It looms like the handicap is set to go to one of the more unexposed types in the race, and preference is for
STRAWBERRY ROCK to strike on his handicap bow. His easy win on debut suggests he may have a bit of class about him and he wasn't disgraced over a longer trip last time, the drop back to 1m2f should bring out his optimum.
Union has a very similar profile and was close up to a very useful yardstick last time, but the 5lb pull with the selection is off-putting, while
Fishable has done nothing wrong in two starts nor generally has the buzzy
Manzo Duro, but both will need to prove they effectively stay this trip.
