Verdict
All of these have struggled lately with the exception of SMUGGLER’S BLUES. Tom George’s charge won a better race at Warwick three runs ago and was beaten only a head at Wincanton last month. The Very Thing won under Becky Smith at Catterick back in January but hasn’t figured since while Railway Muice has been well beaten since notching a four-timer last autumn, including a win over these fences.
