Verdict

The ones at the top of the weights make most appeal, with GENERAL BUX a tentative selection to get back to winning ways. He seemingly failed to stay when pulled up at Fakenham in January and this sort of test should be more suitable. Calin du Brizais probably needed the run last time out so heads the dangers, ahead of Game Line.
