This looks a typically trappy contest for the grade with Just Right needing to be noted in the market and Edge rating a danger if getting a trouble free run from the back. It is expected Enmeshing will get the gallop he required, although he does appear better on AW tracks. FIRE DIAMOND is another AW specialist, but he has shown enough to suggest he performs on turf. The handicapper has left his turf mark alone whereas his AW mark has risen considerably during a recent good run of form. This will be his first try at this trip, but the handicapping anomaly makes that a risk worth taking. The Lord's Walk is hardly well-handicapped but is in better shape lately than many of these.
