It’s difficult to see beyond FIZZLESTIX in a weak handicap. Chris Gordon’s charge finished runner-up at Plumpton at the end of last month and that’s easily the best form on offer. Shoofly Milly continues to slide down the weights without showing any signs of a resurgence while Good News finished fourth over track and trip on his penultimate start without looking like winning and Point N Shoot remains in woeful form.
