Verdict

A small but competitive field goes to post for this handicap with many in form rivals in opposition including Fantastico, Heneseys Leg and Dorothy's Friend and we will take a chance on Fantastico. The three year old was a good forth behind Tempsford last time out and a reproduction of that effort would see him go close. Heneseys Leg rates the main danger he was a fair third behind Piri Piri last time out and the step up in trip is sure to suit. Dorothy's Friend could also go well she was a staying on fifth behind Shush last time and is another that will be suited by the longer trip. Of the remainder With Distinction is from a shrewd yard and is on a handy mark so is with noting in the market but we are happy to stick with the top weight Fantastico.
