Verdict
Not the easiest race to finish the day where we marginally prefer the chances of PAY ON with Francesco and Another Charmer just two more of many to consider. The pick can take advantage of bottom weight here after just finding a subsequent winner who has gone on to better things too good last time off a mark one pound lighter. He's been pretty solid this season and took a race when carrying a heavier burden in the summer. Francesco was a winner last time out over distance at Ayr and has only been raised four pounds for that half length victory and he's unexposed enough to improve further. Another Charmer ran a good race under this rating last time to claim a place but ultimately the form from that contest has been weak. The form from Bonetta's penultimate outing when well beaten by Little Shilling looks strong buts despite a win in a seller last time the handicapper looks to have had his wicked way so not the easiest race to finish with a winner but you should get a pay out with Pay On.
