In depth

Verdict

Nothing here has outstanding claims and this may be best left to FASTAR who looks to have settled into handicaps well and could have a little more to offer. Slow To Hand and Captain Pugwash both take a step up in grade here and it remains to be seen if they can handle this class while Abatement is well handicapped but may just be a better gelding on the AW. Working Class should do better in handicaps but may need this debut with Rumpole not out of this despite top weight.
