Verdict

JAMES CHOICE upped his game when second at Southwell 3 weeks ago and with further improvement on the cards now tackling an even longer trip, Warren Greatrex's 3-y-o gets the vote to open his account. Prince of Calypso finished a place behind the selection last time and he's put forward as the main threat, while Pace Attack looks a typical Sir Mark Prescott improver now handicapping so market support could well prove significant.

9	Similar form first 4 starts but stepped up on reappearance when second of 14 in handicap at Southwell (11f) 3 weeks ago. Will be suited by this extra distance and with further progress on the cards, he looks well worth chancing from 3 lb higher. 1st Pick 9 James Choice Jockey: Edward Greatrex Trainer: Warren Greatrex J: Edward Greatrex T: Warren Greatrex	100	-	-	-	56%
Analysis Similar form first 4 starts but stepped up on reappearance when second of 14 in handicap at Southwell (11f) 3 weeks ago. Will be suited by this extra distance and with further progress on the cards, he looks well worth chancing from 3 lb higher.
8	Saw out the 3f longer trip to run well with cheekpieces back on when third of 14 on handicap debut at Southwell (11f) 3 weeks ago. Got a similar race in him and no surprise should he be on the premises nudged up a couple of pounds. 2nd Pick 8 Prince Of Calypso (Ire) Jockey: Daniel Tudhope Trainer: Edward Bethell J: Daniel Tudhope T: Edward Bethell	98	-	-	-	25%

10	Minor promise in his qualifying runs back in the spring but like the majority from the yard he's open to improvement now tackling a handicap over a markedly longer trip. Certainly worth monitoring in the betting. 3rd Pick 10 Pace Attack (Ire) Jockey: Luke Morris Trainer: Sir Mark Prescott Bt J: Luke Morris T: Sir Mark Prescott Bt	88	-	-	-	8%
Analysis Minor promise in his qualifying runs back in the spring but like the majority from the yard he's open to improvement now tackling a handicap over a markedly longer trip. Certainly worth monitoring in the betting.
