Verdict
FUZZY CAT ticks plenty of boxes here and he gets the vote over Neo's Mate, Shining Times and Diamond Blade. The selection ran a blinder last time at Southwell when the drop back in trip sparked an improved performance. He was narrowly beaten by First Blade that day but he remains unexposed and he has a good high draw here and he looks a decent bet to get his head in front. Neo's Mate is an obvious danger as she was far from disgraced at Catterick last time, she has a decent draw and she likes to get her toe in so the juice in the ground is also a plus. Shining Times has shown promise in maiden company and from a high draw she could be capable of going well on her handicap debut. Diamond Blade has ability but he has been frustrating to follow and the draw is against him this afternoon. Meydan Style hails from a yard who are having a quiet spell and he is readily opposed, leaving Fuzzy Cat as our selection.
