There was plenty of promise in GRAND VENDETTA's debut second to a potentially useful novice at Chepstow, especially considering that he was evidently very green. That experience will have done him the world of good and he shades preference ahead of Wandering Ego, who hasn't really built on his runaway Stratford success in two subsequent starts in this sphere but he nevertheless remains of interest. Inkaman showed ability on his sole start on the Flat and is worth a second look.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: In a race that lacks confirmed pace-forcers, Wandering Ego could get the run of things: Of the better-fancied horses, Brisky Dancer is most likely to be ridden furthest from the pace.
Individual Price Hint: Dragons And Demons has traded at 50% or less of Betfair SP twice on its last 3 starts.
