EDWARD RYE (2) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 5 lengths over 5¾f at this track. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he is a key runner. MUNCHKIN (6) comes here off a break of three-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 5f at this track. Yet to win when resuming but generally runs well with two minor placings from three tries. Rates highly and should take some beating. TWICE THE STORM (8) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 5¾f at this track. Has the class to find the winners' list. SAN SIMON (9) brings the right form to this race after taking out a 5¾f contest at this track last time out by 0.8 lengths. Sure to be competitive.
