A wide-open staying handicap with the vote in favour of DEVIZES. He's been in fine form since the turn of the year, making it 4 wins from 6 starts at Lingfield in April, prior to not being seen to best effect back there later that month. This trip is within range and he can go well again. Signal Twenty Nine, Pour Joie and Highway One head up the dangers.
