Verdict

LOOKSNOWTLIKEBRIAN (NAP) only won by a neck at Fontwell but that was a conditionals' race so he avoids a penalty. The champion jockey is in the saddle today and Tim Vaughan's charge is the most likely winner of the first division of this low-grade handicap. Thunder Pass contests his first handicap having shown a bit more last month at Bangor and Keep Up Keira is even less exposed. The remainder, however, have little to recommend them.
