The pair to focus on are the two last time out winners HEDGING and Miss Recycled. The former is narrowly preferred as the manner in which he scored over 7f at this track last week was a bit more comfortable than the narrow margin the latter won by when causing a 100-1 shock over C&D. Joyful Dream should be involved once again as he was only gunned down late on by Miss Recycled, and it will be fascinating to see how that pair fare as they renew their rivalry. Come On Bear is also worth a mention as she is still unexposed and has shown improvement on both her runs to date in this sphere.
