Vision Thing should be able to comfortably find the front. Danny O'Brien looks to have found a lovely race for THUNDERING FALCON (7), who started favourite in BM64 grade two back but was pulled up and while well-beaten last start, it was in 62 grade and most of his rivals here have been whacking away in 56 company. Has the chance to possy up nicely from the low draw, too. NORTHERN BARRAGE (4) is a horse who promised a bit early in his career and while the good last-start performance was on Heavy ground, he's won on Good ground before so the surface shouldn't be an issue. CHEROKEE BRAVE (3) showed good improvement second-up with the extra fitness from that run, he should be ready for 2200m now. UNAMERICAN (2) ran an improved race here last time out, so he obviously likes the place and warrants respect. MATTHEW MARK (1) might be best of the rest given some adequate recent performances and a good draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Thundering Falcon each way.
