None of these sprinters can be safely ruled out but Henry Candy's SIMPLE MAN had looked a very good prospect when making a winning debut at Nottingham last autumn and is well worth forgiving his subsequent seventh in a Doncaster listed event. He gets the vote ahead of the handily-weighted Rocking Ends, although hat-trick seeking pair Sera Dawn and Umming N' Ahing need factoring in too.
