Bags Groove could prove the best of these in time but in these early days of his career he has seemed a little inconsistent, failing to justify odds-on favouritism previously before winning when similarly fancied in workmanlike style two starts ago. He could easily do the job here, but he would be difficult to back with any confidence. Perhaps CAPELAND can provide the answer instead. He won two bumpers before getting off the mark over hurdles at Newton Abbott last time. He was well beaten on his most recent appearance but this should be an easier assignment for him. The progressive The Mighty Ash could fill the places at a likely big price.
