L'ULTIMO was pipped by revitalised specialist Forest Jump just when it looked like he had done enough. His last win came over this shorter trip and he should go close again. EL DRAQUE has yet to win on the poly but it could be the right race for him. He produced a respectable run over the minimum trip last time. ISIKWISHIKWISHI won his maiden better than the margin suggests. He has drawn well and could raise his merit rating some more. STEVIE GEE is holding form and with BRASS BELL, who has much in his favour, should be right there.
