Cnoc Seoda is likely to be in warm order for this bumper but with her price likely to be prohibitive we choose WHATS ON THE MENU as an alternative while Spice Hill should progress from a solid debut. Perhaps not one to trust fully the pick run-out when last seen but having previously twice only found the one too good he has every chance on that form. Cnoc Seoda won between the flags before only just missing out on his two starts in this sphere and he probably sets the standard. Spice Hill ran well on his only run so far when fourth in a point-to-point and he should progress while Glenstar was much improved on his latest point start and may do well here. A few of these could be anything but What's On the Menu gets the call at the forecast odds.
