Verdict
It could pay to stick with RADIO NOWHERE in this. Beaten only a head at Newcastle on his chasing debut, Donald McCain's charge can go one better with that experience under his belt. Twice Lucky also ran well at Newcastle last time and makes more appeal than Allanard in today's ground, despite the latter having slipped down the weights. Sycho Fred is back on a winning mark but arrives badly out of sorts, as does The Panama Kid.
