Verdict

SPEND A PENNY finally showed some benefit for a slide down the weights when second at Catterick and may be up to landing an uninspiring sprint. Bosham and Lorimer's Lot are others looking to exploit their current marks while Lizzy's Dream has been thereabouts of late. Captain Scooby could be in the mix dropping back to 5f and Busy Bimbo scored off a similar mark at Catterick last season.
