In depth
Verdict
Itizzit is the most experienced and went close in a handicap at Lingfield a fortnight ago. Anycity made a winning start over track and trip and ran well under a penalty last time. He’s preferred to stablemate Victoriano, who made a modest debut at Newcastle last month but another chance goes to LONELY BOY. The latter won one of these events at Wolverhampton back in August and an apprentice’s 7llb allowance may give him the edge in this. Power Of States and Garryowen are preferred to Spirit Of Lucerne of the newcomers.
