Verdict

SMARTY WILD has been placed in two Class 2 handicaps and was travelling easily when falling at Kempton in February. Wayfinder is up 6lb for landing a Class 4 handicap here at the beginning of the month, the first time he's faced good ground so he's an obvious danger. Patroclus won on good going at Leicester in February though has yet to prove he stays this far, a remark that also applies to When You're Ready, a winner over 2m3f here in December.
