Daniel Tudhope taking over in the saddle is a big plus on this occasion, though, and as long as he can get the four-year-old settled, he should have enough to see off Gentle Touch, who was a significant improver from first to second start when runner-up over 7f at Wetherby. Secret Force and Wolfpack are capable of being in the shake-up as well. This is a good opportunity for FOREST CAPER to open his account on third of time of asking after two promising runs to date. David O'Meara's gelding will need to be less free than last time when just failing to make all at Beverley last time as he could find no extra once headed but held on for second. The step back up to 1m is a positive if he can settle a bit better and he looks the one to beat. Gentle Touch is a big threat having shown much more last time stepped up to 7f and can take another step in the right direction upped to 1m but Wolfpack is feared more. James Ferguson's colt made a very promising debut last November when second at Southwell over a mile but flopped on this season's opener dropped back to 7f. He was outpaced (and possibly drawn on the wrong side) then and the return to a mile should help. he can prove that effort to be wrong and give the selction most do.
