Verdict

Sudden Impact has had plenty of decent chances to score without success recently so instead we turn to FIVEFOOTNUMBERONE to win this handicap while the ultra-consistent Liberty Ship should run into the prize money once again. The pick is still three pounds above his last winning mark but has an impressive strike rate at this venue having scored twice in three starts. His last two efforts have only been solid at best but with a bit taken off his back this time he could be ready to win again. Sudden Impact has run well the last twice, only finding a potentially smart sort too good last time but he continues to be beaten racing off of marks lower than his last winning rating. Liberty Ship has found one too good on each of his last three starts and off a similar mark again he should run his race once more and Nomoreblondes is another to consider off a competitive rating. This handicap looks a little tight with Fivefootnumberone the percentage pick.
