Verdict

BANJO PATTERSON is given the tentative vote in this tricky seller with both Le Chiffre and Singleb worth noting. The selection is clearly not easy to win with and is moderate but he did show signs of ability when a fair second in a similar race at Brighton last time out. That was his first time dropped into this grade and if returning with confidence he will go close. Le Chiffre has proven winning form in claimers this season winning at Wolverhampton and Beverly. He disappointed slightly when a beaten favourite last time out but he is once again respected and can be in the shake-up. Singleb was good enough to win a maiden last year late on in the season and once dropped into selling and claiming company this season he has started to perform well. He won at Leicester last time out against similar company and is another danger to the selection.
