Sprint handicaps don't get much more open than this. Preference is for the lightly raced JET SET GO. She's a 6-y-o and only seen the racecourse five times, but went very close on her reappearance last July and makes plenty of appeal on that basis. Obee Jo and Dylan's Lad are two others that make slightly more appeal than some in the field.
