Verdict
TAGULA NIGHT won a tougher handicap than this by a couple of lengths over track and trip last week. He can shrug off a penalty with a similar effort. Straits Of Malacca also drops in class after scoring at Thirsk and can figure again while Great Fun remains unexposed and attempts 6f for the first time after a recent second over 7f here. The rest are harder to recommend unless Oh So Sassy takes advantage of her slide down the weights.
