Verdict
Haasem gets the confident vote in this handicap with Regal Raider and Onenightinlisbon rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Maysarah with a little in hand and although rising in the weights he looks progressive and he is taken to win again. Regal Raider rates the main danger as he beat Brandywell Boy last time. However although he has won over this trip his best form is over shorter and he is taken on with this in mind. Onenightinlisbon won well last time when defeating One More Round but he was all out on that occasion and looks vulnerable under his penalty. Mine Behind could go well at a price if he gets the fast pace he needs to be seen at his best while Kensington is from an in-form yard and could go well at a price but in a race where few can be ruled out and stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Haasem.
