Windsor maiden winner Our Oystercatcher is the great unknown as he makes an AW debut over a new trip for Philip Hide but a lack of inexperience could easily catch him out around this tight turns. With that in mind, preference is for Iain Jardine's Irish recruit SMUGGLER'S CREEK who gets the notable assistance of Luke Morris for his British debut after a cosy victory in a Dundalk claimer last time. Rock Warbler, Right Action and Energia Flavio should also be in the mix.
