        Verdict

        In a wide open handicap FELSHAM is our choice after his winning reappearance but on marginally over Fleeting Echo and Maoi Chinn Tire. The pick has looked progressive in five starts and his run in a strong Doncaster handicap on his last start as a two-year-old offered plenty of hope. That was forthcoming on his seasonal bow at Bath when getting up comfortable and with more likely he can win off this revised mark. Fleeting Echo has also looked progressive and ran a career best off this mark on his last run. That offers hope of another bold bid but he is untested on ground this quick. Moai Chinn Tire is rarely out of the frame and has won two of his last three starts. The latest was in a claimer and he does have a bit to prove off a career high mark. Fly Silca Fly has run some solid races but looks high enough in the weights and Danny's Choice makes a handicap debut off a mark that doesn't look overly lenient. This looks quite tight but Felsham is progressing nicely and can show us more again.
