The obvious starting point for this contest is the in-form Lamloom, who defied a 212 day absence when winning back in April and followed that up with an improved effort at Pontefract, when finishing second at the start of this month. He looks to have progressed at the age of 4 and it would be no surprise to see him continue his upward curve. As always I'm not always looking for the likeliest winner, but instead value. I believe that value comes in the much more exposed shape of Wink Oliver. He was put up on this blog on his latest start at Lingfield and was given a strange ride, one of the last off the bridle it Charlie Bennett looked to hold onto his mount for slightly too long, giving the winner first run. He hasn't won off a mark this high before but he looks to have a good chance of hitting the frame dropped in class, with the likely strong pace expected to suit.

Wink Oliver 25/1 - 0.5 Points Each-Way
