Verdict

Plenty of consistent types in an open affair and a chance is taken with UNCLE DICK. He has been noted staying on nicely over further this term and now drops 2f in trip - a possibly surprising move, However, he's a smooth traveller who may well be better suited by a strongly-run mile which looks likely to be the case here. The likes of Commonsensical and Roman Mist are proving reliable sorts for connections and should be in the mix again, although the handicapper may have their measure at present. In contrast, the consistent if hitherto luckless Accrington Stanley receives weight all round and may have a few pounds to play with here. He's a good each-way play.
