Genuine pace with Easy Beast taking up the running ahead of Bywaters Road and Fight For Freedom. ROBERT THE PUSS (4) is no star but he's been racing well this campaign. While he mightn't have been up to his best here last start, I'm happy to overlook one poor effort considering his form prior. The wet track is a big tick and if he can get some luck from the barrier, he can bounce back to winning ways. MIDNIGHT RUSH (5) controlled a stronger race last time but was outsprinted late. He can tend to mix his form, though he wasn't beaten far to Robert The Puss under similar conditions back in June. May represent some value in the market. FANTASTIC HOST (10) and BLUE SPECIAL (2) are worth considering. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Robert The Puss.
