Verdict

This looks pretty tight on handicap ratings so the penalty incurred by Forget Me Not Lane for his recent win at Redcar does him no favours. GHALAA was below par over 7f on the Polytrack three weeks ago but the Nayef filly is worth a try over today's longer trip and she gets a tentative vote to improve on her earlier efforts. Greyhope was still beaten over 12 lengths despite finishing third at Musselburgh on his return while Wolf Spirit has been in dire form since scoring at Redcar in April. Only Orsenfoolsies may finish closer back down in distance and Bitter Harvest should do better in time.
