Verdict
This is a wide-open handicap where last time out winner ALLFORMARY looks just the call ahead of Moon Lightning and Barbarian. At first glance the pick's five pound mark rise for a narrow but good looking victory last time seems steep but we have to take into account that was her first run back on properly soft ground since her winning debut. She's also unexposed enough to improve and she has terms in his favour to reaffirm her form over leading rival Mohawk Ridge. Moon Lightning could be really well weighted now and his best performance to date came under this weight when placed in a York apprentices' race. Barbarian has run well in defeat a few times under this load and likes this ground so is another for the list as is Fortunate Bid, who is more competitively treated with two pounds removed from his back. This is by no means easy and Allformary just has most in her favour.
