Bundle Of Interest heads the field on ratings, narrowly ahead of Bill Silvers on the same figure, and the pair look set to dominate proceedings over this mile on good-to-firm ground at Navan. Go Out and Gloriously Glam represent the chief threats from the chasing group, though both are rated some way below the leading duo and will need to find improvement to get involved. Bill Silvers is the obvious rival to factor in, sharing that top rating, so the outcome may well hinge on how the pair meet on the day. Bundle Of Interest is the selection.
ALTO SAX is one I like at 8/1. He was beaten just a quarter of a length off a mark of 50 back in July, so we know he is capable from around this sort of rating, and he was staying on again last time. Reese Holohan takes 7lb off as well, which gives him every chance from a handicapping point of view. Big field so you need a bit of luck, but the price is fair.
VERDICT: ALTO SAX 8/1
