Verdict
Another tricky handicap where we are inclined to side with NACIMO ahead of Work Boy and Trafalgar Man. The selection was last seen finishing second to Rash Moment at Uttoxeter, form that was franked when his conqueror won again at Chepstow. Formerly trained over in France, the gelding has only had two starts on these shores and this mark of 100 looks fair. Classic Harry only has one win to his name but he has no problem with this ground and is rated better than his recent efforts this year, a comment that also applies to Buckland Gold and Nobel. Work Boy is unexposed and put his best foot forward last time when entering handicap company at Carlisle; the step up in trip should not be a problem and his jockey is able to claim an extra 3lb as he rides for his own stable. Trafalgar Man represents a trainer in very good form and off this mark of 93 he should not be far away assuming his jumping holds up now returned to fences. This doesn't look a strong contest and it looks a good chance for Nacimo to land the odds.
