Verdict

African Friend made a winning return in a maiden race at Windsor and an apprentice’s allowance helps his cause on his handicap debut. But he has no easy task up against these more experienced sprinters and FOXTROT KNIGHT is preferred. Ruth Carr's charge was narrowly beaten at Ayr last time with Lathom in close attendance and Invincible Ridge further behind. Razin' Hell went close in a lower grade over track and trip recently and Midnight Malibu was runner-up here last month. Foxy Forever has been thereabouts of late and ran well at Newmarket last time while Jabbarockie remains unexposed and makes his handicap debut.
