Verdict
Bostin bids to follow up his Wincanton success off an 11lb higher mark but might struggle to get the better of ANOTHER BRANDY. Neil Mulholland's charge was just touched in another race on the same card and deserves a change of luck. Newforge House may do better now going handicapping but the four-year-old Unidexter isn't getting any better and Missionaire has been chasing and never finds much when push comes to shove. Mr Fickle made the frame at Warwick and Taunton in the spring but has gone backwards since.
