Not the easiest finale for punters and it might just pay to go with the obvious choice. BUG BOY had plenty to spare when scoring over C&D 10 days ago and escapes a penalty with that having been an apprentice race. He clearly likes it here and should have standout claims from his unchanged mark. The maiden Chinese Alphabet has form that ties in with the selection and shouldn't be ruled out hastily. General Brook and Essenaitch both having winning track form and are on very appealing marks if finding their best stuff, while any money for Searching would be noted returning to the Flat in this grade for the first time.
