Verdict
HANDSOME JACK carried plenty of confidence ahead of his Yarmouth victory and we are hopeful that the top-weight can follow up on his return to the polytrack. Bouggatti, who was two-and-a-half lengths adrift on that occasion reopposes and will be in receipt of chunks of weight all around so would be in many people's thoughts as forecast material. Memory Lane was a disappointing favourite at Pontefract last time out and is surely better than that bare form suggests. Daas Rite has been on the go right throughout the season and should not be too far away again. Hawk Moth had shaped up with a modicum of ability in maidens and confirmed that with a solid success at Wolverhampton on handicap debut. A rise of 4lb appears fair on balance. Tokum was easy to back on handicap intro at Epsom and ran accordingly.
