Verdict
Methag is well treated nowadays but has become hard to place. KARAKORAM makes more appeal having only been raised 2lb for his victory in a conditionals’ race at Taunton last month with Joe Anderson able to claim his full allowance here. Enlighten has been knocking on the door and Ace Time is on a roll while Ballycorr and Smoking Pigeon could both be capable of better now going handicapping. Above Suspicion has ability and Alberic was only beaten half-a-length off this mark at Hereford 10 days ago but is starting to run out of chances.
