Couldn't land a blow when seventh of nine in a handicap (over 1m here) 28 days ago; has a bit to find with Bob's Your Uncle (second) on that running; just second start in this company; facing a tougher assignment this time, unlikely to trouble the principals

Verdict

This looks tight but it may pay to side with BOB'S YOUR UNCLE who didn't do much wrong last time (form has been boosted since) and can come out on top with more improvement in him. Nordic Rebel is an interesting runner although he is not in the habit of winning, Youcanthurrylove might have a say, and this trip could be a bit far for Millahue.
