NR
The lack of an obvious front-runner somewhat muddies the waters but 4-time C&D winner VENTURA EXPRESS has been plying his trade in better company this season and was unlucky not to finish much closer when runner-up at Beverley last time. He's preferred to fellow C&D winner Elegant Erin who has some strong form for the grade this season and arrives in form, while Bosh eases further in class and could be dangerous having his first start over this trip since his debut.

Race Hints

Specific Pace Hint: Brummell could be expected to race prominently. Of those in the front half of the betting forecast, Bosh might be well positioned in a slowly run affair: Of the better-fancied horses, Elegant Erin is most likely to be ridden furthest from the pace.
Individual Price Hint: Ventura Express has traded at 50% or less of Betfair SP twice on its last 5 starts.
