Verdict
A competitive affair for the highlight of the evening in which Fazza is sure to be popular after racking up three wins from his last four outings, including a recent C&D success. However, he's up 16lb since the first of those wins and may find this a bridge too far. Moheebb goes well here and can't be ignored with Ruth Carr in red-hot form but EUSTON SQUARE could be the one for the Whillans team. After a pipe-opener, he's gone well in three subsequent starts, ran as well as ever behind Sunset Kitty at Doncaster latest and comes here on an unchanged mark. Tartan Gunna and Collateral Damage are both steadily descending the weights and cannot be discounted off their current marks.
