She Is For Me Boys heads our ratings after landing a handicap at Worcester last time from marginally lower off the weights, and her front-running style suits this small-field test — she is the one to beat. Nickelforce is the main danger, having taken a recent handicap by a wide margin and showing admirable consistency at this trip and going, while Normofthenorth, returning under rules after impressing in a point-to-point recently, and Bagheera Ginge are also not without claims. She Is For Me Boys is our selection.
She Is For The Boys gets the vote here and may just prove to be the strongest stayer in the race.
Nickleforce won well last time out but can be sketchy at his hurdles on occasions, and if the race develops into a proper stamina test, Gavin Sheehan\’s mount could be the one staying on best to pick them off late.
