Braid Blue has to be respected given Gordon Elliott's record here but this does look an excellent opportunity for SKIDDAW VALLEYS to score. His form entitles him to win this and with conditions fine, he can get on top. Juge Et Parti and Imperial Elixir hold chances but at likely bigger prices, don't ignore Knockoura if you're looking for something each-way.
