Verdict
Velator is probably best watched until showing signs of a revival, though is well treated nowadays. Makethe Mostofnow is much better when the mud is flying and hasn't raced since pulling up at Cartmel in May while Panxtoa has struggled a bit back in handicaps this summer, though at least managed to finish in a Listed race here last month when The Nephew pulled up. WESTERN KING is taking on better opposition than when scoring off a 6lb lower mark at Bangor but appears to be back in form and that's more than you can say about his rivals.
