Eustace Grenier is our selection at Uttoxeter, and he looks the one to side with over this 20-furlong trip on good ground. He rates only four pounds behind the top-rated Loustic du Chatel, and a fitness edge plus the more solid book of form make that gap well worth overlooking. Loustic du Chatel is the obvious danger on figures, while Gentleman Bill and Sir Hobnob are both within a couple of pounds of him and can't be dismissed in a competitive 15-runner field. Still, Eustace Grenier's consistency gives him the narrowest of preferences, and he is the pick.
