Verdict

A wide open handicap. Wind In My Sails returned to form when winning at Bath last time but is not a reliable candidate to follow up. Bluff Crag has been in solid form and was staying on well when picking up his first win at Newbury last time but could be vulnerable to less-exposed types such as the well-bred SHADAD, who has been handed a generous mark having won a maiden at Wolverhampton last month. Major Assault has also been given a good chance by the handicapper and can make the frame.
