Verdict
Jason Hart looks good value for his 3lb claim in this and can steer CATALLOUT to a second successive win having been on board when the filly shed her maiden tag at Musselburgh earlier this month. Eeny Mac has had plenty of chances and isn't improving while George Thisby may just be in the handicapper's grip now, though will appreciate today's quicker ground and has already won for Luke Rowe. Sairaam tends to reserve her best for this track and may be best of the rest with Twinkled having her first start since winning on the Polytrack in early May.
