Verdict
This is a tight-looking handicap but three-year-olds generally do well and Majestic Dawn got back to winning ways on heavy ground at Nottingham last month. Severance is also worth a second look but the older horses may just hold sway with course and distance winner Zzoro likely to be thereabouts again. Regular Income is still at the right end of the handicap and veteran Awake My Soul can never be ruled out in this grade. BADENSCOTH was just under a length behind Cockalorum when fourth at York last month but is 2lb better off. He looked like winning when hitting the front on the Knavesmire but weakened close home. Now back in form, Dean Ivory’s charge can hold on this time.
