Verdict
I'm For Waiting, Misbehaviour and Polyphony look the ones to concentrate on in this poor seller and the confident vote goes to I'M For Waiting. The gelding was a fair fourth in a much better handicap behind Tidjani last time if he can reproduce that effort back in this easier race he will be hard to beat. Misbehaviour rates the main danger she was eighth behind Barton Nic Last time. However most of her wins have come in the early part of every season and she will need to improve on her latest effort to trouble the judge. Polyphony is another that could go well he has been disappointing of late but that has been on very fast ground and his best form is on soft so if the rains arrive he would be a danger to all. Of the remainder Ludere would have a chance on his second at Bangor behind Darina's Boy but he has pulled up on his last two runs and can not be backed with any confidence. So we are happy to stick with I'm For Waiting.
