#2 Modest Gentleman was a nightmare watch for backers when returning to Class 5 last time. After lunging forward at the start and making contact with the gates, he lost ground, was hampered, and settled at the rear before encountering significant interference in the home straight. Despite all that, he was only beaten a little over two lengths into sixth. #10 Plentiful, from barrier 1, will have every opportunity to secure back-to-back wins. #7 Country Dancer hasn’t had much luck in recent runs since dropping to this class, but he should deliver his best if he avoids trouble from gate 11. #1 Dan Attack drops back to Class 5 with James McDonald booked—a combination that bodes well for his chances.
