Verdict
Oakley Pride beat much higher rated horses to win a seller at Wolverhampton and was promptly raised 16lb. Auric Goldfinger failed to cope with an 8lb rise last time for winning over 7f here before that while Ourmullion is upped 3lb after finishing second over track and trip on his latest start. Delfie Lane and Beauchamp Opal were placed in handicaps recently and Sandy Shores and Baby Helmet made the frame in maiden races, but the speculative vote goes to another handicap debutant in STATE RESIDENCE. He finished fourth at Wolverhampton behind a winner rated 77 and has a decent shout on that form.
