Verdict
Nibras Gold continues to run well but gets no respite from the handicapper as a consequence. Sisterandbrother has placed in all three starts since landing a maiden at Huntingdon in the spring while Moveit Like Minnie will have benefited from a recent run at Warwick, though may find this on the sharp side. SCHERBOBALOB has had a break but runs his best races here and won at the track in April under similar circumstances. Alastair Ralph’s gelding may be worth a second look if the market speaks in his favour. Charles St continues to frustrate but Exeter winner Jeudidee is still improving and Javert Allen could be anything after just two career starts.
