        In depth

        Verdict

        Benny The Bus, Double Carpet and Mister Jingles are the three to look at here and preference is for Benny The Bus. Double Carpet has been disappointing but showed when chasing home Edaara at Leicester that he does possess ability. His outings on an all weather surface have not been encouraging however, and although he takes a drop in grade here he is overlooked. Mister Jingles is another who has proved moderate but showed on his latest start that he does possess ability when eased in grade. This is a weak contest and Mister Jingles cannot be ruled out. Benny The Bus has been knocking at the door with some good efforts in handicaps and this looks an ideal opportunity for him. It is the weakest race he has contested, and at the 23rd time of asking, Benny The Bus can lose his maiden tag.
