Verdict
Lukoutoldmakezebak was beaten only a length when third here recently as he looks to finally open his account. HISAR is a similar type but has tumbled 20lb down the weights this season and Mick Appleby’s charge is preferred having gone close off today’s mark at Lingfield last week. A winner over shorter trips when trained in France, Tan has also slid down the handicap while Western Way can race off a 10lb lower mark on his first start for over a year and drops in class.
