Related to 1m winner Chestnut Bomber; there's hope from the sire that he has some ability; big player as trip should suit on pedigree (sire has plenty of sprint winners) and has a ground-saving draw.

Verdict
Astrophile poses a threat while Two Tigers and Autograph have been running well lately. But CHESTNUT VERSE is strongly fancied to come out on top. He is a well-bred newcomer and can capitalise on a nice draw.
