In depth
Verdict
Dizzy In The Head has been a revelation this season and is unbeaten in two starts for new connections. He is likely to still be ahead of the handicapper and could be hard to beat here. Tappit is badly out of form and is overlooked while Water Baby may be a bigger danger with this trip likely to suit. Mister Benji though has to be respected as he has raced in far better company than this and is potentially well-weighted in this type of contest.
