All good things come to those who wait, and this 5f handicap is by far the toughest puzzle to solve on tonight's card. A plethora of interwoven form lines make for some serious head-scratching with See Vermont, Hadley and Groundworker all clashing at Musselburgh last month, and that's before you add in last week's C&D 1/2/3 of Groundworker, Young Tiger and Canford Bay into the ever muddying waters. Furthermore, with Ambitious Icarus back on the scene of his most recent success, the puzzle continues to get trickier by the minute. Therefore, for a race which will take less than 60 seconds to run, the safest option appears to be to keep it simple. WINDFORPOWER is a force to be reckoned with over 5f at this track, and despite a few lesser efforts of late his current mark of 50 is a gift, and he's fully capable of stamping his presence over the others coming late on the scene from the lowest draw off a generous early pace.
