A tricky opener that's made even trickier by the fact there appears to be little in the way of pace up front, and that won't help the likes of American Patrol and Connemara Queen much. OSKERMAN appears to be the obvious one after a first solid effort for his new yard and he may be able to build upon it here. Fortune And Glory probably won't mind if this is slowly run and may be the danger. Gracious George and Pick a Little are worth a look for those wanting something e/w at a working man's price.
