Democracy Dilemma
Selected at: 13/2

Improved performer this season and won at this level when making all in the Beverley Bullet in August. Not as good last time when behind Relief Rally at Newbury since but big chance down in class and handles soft.

Verdict

In an open event, a chance is taken on RUMSTAR whose handicap form is very solid. Relief Rally is feared most.
