Verdict
Nothing can be comfortably eliminated in a pretty hot handicap but if WISTY can recapture the level he achieved here last season when compiling a most impressive runaway three-timer at the track, then he could well be the one. Subsequent performances at Kelso and Aintree were disappointing and he does have to put a pulled up effort at the latter track last time behind him. However, he's well worth the chance to bounce back with conditions to suit. Mark Walford and Emma Todd have enjoyed a good month to date and Oliver's Gold should go well for the combination on the back of a smooth Southwell success latest. He, too, has his conditions for an in-form yard. MIxboy is respected off topweight, whilst Johnson and Bowen are notable bookings for the Moffatt duo. The bottom trio in the weights cannot be ruled out either, of which recent scorer Endless Credit makes most appeal.
