Verdict
MIGHTY ZIP scored here last month before winning again at Nottingham. He can race off a 5lb lower mark back on this surface and should figure. Frank The Barber scored at Lingfield earlier and remains 5lb higher while Hot Stuff won a maiden race at the same track but has failed to threaten in handicaps so far. Kiringa’s only win to date came off a 6lb lower mark at Wolverhampton but course and distance winner Doctor Parkes is weighted to figure if back to his best.
