SPECIAL CREED is strongly fancied to prevail. He can improve for his first appearance and there were encouraging signs on his racecourse bow. Bitofjustice is from a strong trainer.

IMAGINE THE MOON is the recommendation. She can be excused her most recent run and has wins in her formline. Ace Reporter has won over C&D.

A battle for the lead might have done for the chances of Triple Scout last time, and Mrs. Del and Triple Scout are C&D winners. However, GONNABEE looks a solid choice. She bids for a second course success and can confirm placings with Triple Scout and Mabee Luckynwild, who were behind her when last seen.

Girvin City Limits ran into traffic problems last time, and Moped Mo is capable of having a say. However, TEXAS FREE is a strong fancy. He bids for a second course success and should be suited by the abundance of pace up front.

Sneakierthansarah, who has few miles on the clock, is a contender, and Salty Sue, I Made It and Sneakierthansarah have run well previously over this C&D. However, HARD TRUTH WINS is a confident pick. She is taken to confirm placings with Santiva Diva and Lilmiss Sassypants and has won once at this venue previously.

SMOKIN RICHIE is expected to get the job done. He is a frequent winner over this distance and could benefit if the front runners set off too quick. All Jokes Aside has winning C&D form.

Sweepinjustice certainly isn't out of it, and Buoy poses a threat. However, BELLA BOLLE is hard to look beyond. She has shown in the past that she is able to get the job done and can reverse last time's placings with Compressed Energy.

Onda Brava poses a threat while Lady Chai and Starfall should be looked at. But NEED A BIT OF LUCK is a strong pick. She looks set to capitalise if the leaders go too fast and can confirm superiority with Go Gemma, Elle's Dancer and Regal Queen who were behind her when last seen.
