Point winner HITINTHEHEADLINES makes obvious appeal starting out for Dan Skelton and gets the vote before market clues. Harry Fry has a very healthy 22% strike-rate in bumpers in the last 5 seasons so Governors Island is another who could have a say if the betting suggests he's fancied. Warwick winner Bathara could go well again under a penalty.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: Dartmouth Jet could be expected to race prominently. Of those in the front half of the betting forecast, Bathara might be well positioned in a slowly run affair: Of the better-fancied horses, Governors Island is most likely to be ridden furthest from the pace.
