The race lacks early speed so doubt they will go too hard. Siding with the McEvoy-trained debutant MR BLUNT (2). He's won a couple of jump-outs leading into this and the stable boasts an outstanding record here. This doesn't look the strongest maiden and he draws for every chance. RAMBITION (4) wasn't beaten far here over 1000m last time out and should appreciate the rise in trip now. Hard to hold out. TERRITORY TIES (11) is a gelding by Shamus Award on debut for the Moody & Coleman yard who has jumped out fairly. Watch the betting. BANGALOW ROAD (5) should be poised to run a big race first up from a spell following three recent trials - must be respected. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mr Blunt to win.
