BROCTUNE PAPA GIO hasn't won since landing this race last year but went close in a higher grade handicap over a mile here last time. He can race off the same mark today and gets the vote. Who's Shirl has been placed in better company and will have come on for a recent return from a lay-off while Steel Stockholder is not without a shout at this level. Just The Tonic is back on a winning mark but out of sorts so Eeny Mac makes more appeal having rattled up a hat-trick at Beverley during the summer. Come Hither gets the assistance of a 5lb claimer and the Catterick winner may finish closer as a result.
