STRONG ECONOMY has always looked the sort to make a chaser and turned in a decent effort on his debut when given a tough task and this drop in grade looks as though it will suit him well and he has the ability to handle these conditions. Buffalo Ballet has the ability to win a race such as this but does just need to apply himself through a race while Paddling has to show that he can handle this better class of race of an increased mark although he did win well last time. Hills Of Dubai makes his chase and looks the type to do well in this sphere from a stable going well this season but the first-time cheekpieces will need to work the oracle with Celtic Flames after his poor run last time out.
