An open finale in which plenty can be considered with the likes of Highwaygrey and Northern Lyte wonderfully consistent during the early weeks of summer. Helian is an unexposed handicap debutant who could take a step forward now upped in trip while very similar comments apply to the Karl Burke-trained Power Player who ran well when making the frame at this track (1m) three weeks ago. However, without a necessarily strong degree of confidence the vote goes to the soft ground tested FIREWATER. He held his own in defeat at Pontefract less than a fortnight ago, and can hopefully cope with a subsequent 2lb rise in the weights.
