Verdict

All four of these arrive in fine form but SUTTER COUNTY is well clear of the rest at the weights. Mark Johnston’s colt has been placed in similar conditions races the last four times and this looks his easiest task so far. The remainder all share similar handicap marks though Merry Banter has not raced since September and Marquee Club finished just ahead of Dazacam when runner-up in a handicap at Lingfield last week.
