Verdict
Broctune Red escaped a penalty here last week and reversed earlier running with Dramatista to complete a double. But he drops down in trip carrying 5lb extra today and BOBBY JOE LEG is preferred. The latter won over course and distance a fortnight ago, with Cmon Cmon well beaten, and Ruth Carr’s charge should make another bold in this lower grade. Katsonis is one of the least exposed and could go well having missed the break at Wolverhampton last time.
