Verdict
There's not much between a handful of these at the weights but WEST END LAD arrives in the best form. A repeat of his fourth in a handicap at Leicester last time should see him come out best in this grade. Valantino Oyster has split a couple of woeful efforts with a win at Ripon and Triple Eight is also proving inconsistent with a poor run at Beverley last time having gone close at Newcastle earlier. Refractor, Judicious and Matraash are struggling at present and dropped in class here as a consequence.
