Verdict
WELEASE BWIAN will need luck in-running as he is usually held up for a run. But he’s been competing in Class 3 sprints here of late and finished ahead of Dynamo Walt and Top Boy when second over track and trip in June. The latter was well ahead of Noble Asset when scoring here in May and Desert Strike beat Elusivity and Diamond Charlie when winning over 5f at Lingfield in the same month. Rocking Rudolph makes a belated return to action and the Southwell maiden winner is worth noting in the betting.
