Nobody Tells Me is impossible to oppose here with A Toi A Moi and Mibleu rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Rowlands Dream in a better race last time out, that form looks rock solid in the context of this race and under conditions that suit he need only run up to that mark to win with a little in hand. A Toi A Moi rates the main danger on his latest third behind Limited Edition, this longer trip should suit but his overall profile leaves him with plenty to find with the selection. Mibleu was third behind Don't Push It last time, this looks easier but he has yet to prove he stays this far and he is taken on on that basis. Nobile looks sure to improve for the experience and for the winner we return to Nobody Tells Me who is hard to oppose.
