Verdict
Mazaaya is given the vote to land this at the expense of Enroller and Fiulin. The selection is seven pound higher since winning on the all weather at Great Leighs on his seasonal reappearance and still could be potentially well treated. He broke his maiden tag first time of asking last year and was then asked to compete in some tough nursery races thereafter. He looks an improver and we feel he can win again. Enroller broke his maiden tag at Leicester last month and then ran second in his first handicap at the same venue last time out. He was not discredited in defeat but he is clearly not well handicapped as a result so is to be treated with caution. Fiulin is untried in handicaps as yet and is put in off a mark of 85 after winning at Doncaster last month. He looks an improver and could pose as a real danger to the selection but as for the winner we will stick with Mazaaya.
