Verdict
Appenzeller struck up a good partnership with Finley Marsh to land a recent double though has been raised a further 5lb today after scoring at Lingfield. The Night King won a lower grade contest over track and trip recently and can figure again but it could pay to stick with SWEET NATURE on her handicap debut as there looks more to come from the Haggas filly over this longer trip having won a novices’ race at Newcastle last time. Heeyaam is another to note now handicapping while better is expected from Yaa Mous returning to her winning trip today.
