RACING POST VERDICT

There is no getting away from the in-form ESPERTI (nap) who can notch his sixth win over fences. Second spot can go to Imperial Alex

Racing Post Pick
Esperti
Our Expert Tip

This 3m4f contest looks very open on paper, but ESPERTI is a strong selection.
Receiving weight from all of his rivals, Sean Bowen can sit quietly towards the rear before producing a challenge when the leaders begin to tire.

Rain cap will be all the rage in the betting, but again when isn\'t it. was 2/1 beaten fav last time out and essentially is 4lb worse off here, Im going to take an eachway gamble on BULLINGTON BRY switch stables last time out and well supported in the market, the 1st time blinkers were slapped on and seemed to do an ok job, I would prefer this horse to potentially get a bit more cover, he will stay 7F/1m and has the speed to tuck in if needed. the race is not great and if Jessica Macey can squeeze a bit more out of this horse on his 2nd run he could go close, of a career low marl and 4 places on offer at 15/2 happy to have an eachway play on this.
