At the top of the market both My Gift To You and Haveyougotmymoney have favourites chances but neither look nailed on in any way and I'm quite keen to take them on.

 

Battle of Benurb is an Irish raider who was tipped by Sean when a non runner in Ireland last Friday, they obviously fancy their chances here today although the horse does seem to be on a 10lbs higher mark than it may have been on in Ireland. It's attraction on Friday was a decent handicap mark as it is out of form, so best watched I think. 

 

The pair I really like for solid each way bets are RUMBLE B who has decent form running fresh, the trip and handicap mark and Going conditions are fine for this usually consistent performer. BALAKIN has won at Kelso over 2 miles 5 furlongs and placed here over 2 miles and 4 furlongs. I think it's well worth a go at this trip, and if they can conserve some energy to the top of the hill and run in, he would have a turn off foot that others may struggle to handle. A steady pace would suit this one and he might well get it.
