Verdict
Mark Johnston has a decent record in this and Mister Rockandroll arrives in much better form than Chadic, though the former steps up in class after scoring at Carlisle. Rib Reserve and Peterhouse won Class 4 handicaps last time with the latter scoring over course and distance but Laurence and Arcano Gold will need to dig a bit deeper if they are to get involved off their current marks. Groor hasn't raced since April but SEALIFE (NAP) made a winning start in handicaps when beating a couple of previous winners at Nottingham recently. There should be more to come from the Haggas filly and she gets the nod.
