Verdict
An open-race in which Sir Mark Prescott's Provender is likely to prove popular in the market. However despite having decent pieces of form he continues to remain difficult to win with and is unlikely to offer great value. Geronimo runs particularly well over this course and distance and has to be considered, as does Cadeaux Cher who may not be quite as good as he used to be but has to be feared in this class. But the TEAMtalk selection is Quest For Glory who has appreciated his recent drop in class and is racing off a winning mark on a track which should suit his forcing tactics.
