Verdict

Relight My Fire is 4-36 on the track and, though likely to run well, he'll have to do it the hard way around the outside. MUTARAKEZ has never run in a Class 5 handicap and he's been dropped just enough to get into this. He hasn't won since Pontefract a year ago when 9lb higher and this looks his chance to return to winning ways. Mudawwan has had wind surgery since a couple of moderate runs at Newcastle and he's never won on Turf but Christmas Night has been given a chance by the assessor as he's 2lb lower than when scoring here a year ago. Jo's Girl was engaged in the 3.50 at Redcar yesterday.
