A race where winning form is sparse at best, preference is for DEFINITE WISDOM, who despite being a quirky sort looked to stage a revival with a narrow defeat here last time. While his tendency to hang is a concern this looks a weak enough race for him to capitalise on. Hard Knocks ran a fine race here last time too and remains well handicapped compared to others, while the likes of Madera Mist and Monbeg Aquadude have fallen onto nice enough marks but may need slightly more on ratings to be competitive.
