Verdict
Comprise got off the mark in handicaps at Kempton under a canny ride from Jamie Spencer but may not be able to repeat those tactics with at least one front-runner drawn inside of him while Parys Mountain and Pepita may also struggle to get the early lead. With doubts about most of these, BOUNDSY could be the answer. He put in his best performance to date when finishing second in a similar race at Pontefract and ought to be able to take this if improving again. Love Oasis appears to be held by the handicapper while Tallinski didn’t seem to enjoy this course when last seen in June. But the unexposed Somewhere Secret, who met trouble in running on his seasonal debut, has an each way chance here.
