Verdict

Castletown beat So Be It and stablemate Spark Of Madness here last month but is worse off at the weights with both of that pair. ECOSSAIS is on a long losing run but can’t get much lower in the weights and Toby Wynne takes off a further 5lb. Henry Brown also struggles to get his head in front and was a well-beaten favourite off this mark at Hexham when last seen while Get With It is 8lb higher than when landing this last year.
