Verdict
Misaro looks well weighted on his return to the handicap ranks so has the call here in prefernce to Fromsong and Steel City Boy. On form with two wins and two silvers in his last four starts the selection is well below his last winning handicap weight. His recent successes have come in claimers but with a good record here he gets the call. Fromsong has a bit to prove after his run off this mark last time but he has gone well off this rating before especially at this track so he shouldn't be ruled out. Steel City Boy is better on the all-weather than on the turf so his last run can be ignored and although loking weighted out of the win he should feature. Pipers Piping may be seen to better effect now switched back to Polytrack and racing of a mark just two pounds heavier than his last winning burden while Bookiesindex Boy may struggke under this rating. This could end up being tight but Misaro is on form and races from a nice weight.
