Perfect Treasure won nicely last time out but may now be a little high in the weights and so we will side with Prince Valentine, Wrighty Almighty is another worthy of respect. The key to this event could be a race over the mile here earlier this month. Wrighty Almighty landed the spoils, with Prince Valentine just three-quarters of a length away in second. Gary Moore's charge led until the final furllong so this trip should be ideal and he is also two pounds better off with his conqueror. Perfect Treasure's course and distance success was gained in game fashion and although he should be thereabouts the seven pound extra may be enough to stop the follow up victory. Lady Edge could prove best of the remainder, but the pick of the weights looks to be Prince Valentine and he gets the nod.
