Nimr keeps on winning and he could still be well-handicapped after winning the Lincoln trial at Wolverhampton before failing to get in to that race later on the card. However, with much of the pace looking like it's on the other side, it just tempers enthusiasm for win purposes. An interesting alternative is FUWAIRT who looks set to get a nice tow into the race from the likes of Sinfonietta and the form of his third at Newcastle when last seen looks like it could be worth following. This may have been the long-term target after that race and he's taken to get his head in front. The aforementioned David Menuisier runner will likely give the selection a good pace to run at and he himself may be able to hang on for a place despite a disappointing run at Chepstow when last seen. Gabriel's Kaka is another who will enjoy the expected strong pace and appears to be on a fair mark.
