An open-looking nursery to start proceedings. Gnat Alley has been threatening to get her head in front and ran well in a much stronger contest at Doncaster earlier this month but we’ll take a chance on IUR CINN TRA tackling 6f for the first time. He has been hampered the last twice but still finished ahead of Barging Thru at Beverley. Nigel Tinkler and Faye McManoman have been among the winners lately so Prodigious Blue is worth a second look while Emeralds Pride remains unexposed. Thirsk third Pneumatic may be the pick of the remainder.
