Justwhateverulike is tricky to catch right but on the evidence of his latest winning performance he is taken to win again at the expense of Tin Healy¿s Pass and Ton-Chee. The selection was breaking his maiden tag when winning ways at Sedgefield last month and is now eight pounds higher as a result. His form prior to that had been very indifferent but he did get placed around this track in March of last year proving he can handle the stiffness. If able to produce the form he showed last time out he could be difficult to beat. Tin Healy¿s Pass has course and distance winning form although that was eighteen months ago and he has failed to win since. Having said that he ran well to finish second behind the selection at Sedgefield and at the weights is not certain to reverse the form. Having said that he has to be respected and any market moves should be noted. Ton-Chee has been about for some time and looks to be within the grasp of the handicapper. He did win last season at Newcastle but his two runs this year have been disappointing so connections have decided to apply some head gear. If sharpening him up and he is at his best he holds an each way chance at best. So for the winner we return to Justwhateverulike.
