Verdict
Cheer's Delboy is having a first run since a second at Uttoxeter in May. On We Go was left well behind by Abington Park and For Jim here at the end of August. It’s difficult to see him reversing those placings but the second won at Bangor earlier this week to frank the form. DORETTE won at Uttoxeter in June and is back on the same mark as when second subsequently at Southwell. She’ll be receiving weight from all but one of her rivals in this thanks to Philip Armson’s claim. Golden Chancer has been fairly consistent lately and rates a threat.
