Verdict
Willard Creek makes a belated handicap debut having landed a novices' race at Nottingham while several of these went close last time. Diamondonthehill was beaten only a head at Thirsk while Chief Of Staff finished runner-up over a shorter trip at Newbury. Star Shield had the measure of Under Fox when winning at Ayr and both have placed subsequently but PISANELLO (NAP) drops down a grade on the back of a placed efforts in Class 3 company and David O’Meara’s charge gets the nod.
