Verdict
SHOWALONG has dropped to a winnable mark these days and his trainer has recently managed to arrest a losing run of some note. One Last Hug may be modest but he’s shown his better form around this circuit and will be in receipt of lumps of weight all around. Soul Seeker has a top rider booked albeit the stable form has been notably disappointing of late. Modular Magic has offered little in two starts this season but does handle decent ground and is now 5lb below his last winning figure.
