Verdict
Oh So Hot was a disappointing favourite at Redcar but Ginato had excuses behind Mr Trevor at Thirsk and should get much closer here if not hampered by a low draw. COMETH THE MAN couldn’t quite hang on at Southwell last week and is now 0-15 but he is surely capable of winning a race like this off his current mark and has the stands’ rail to help this evening. Ireland's Eye has a similar chance at the weights and also looks to have a decent draw, though he did finish behind Blazing Son at Thirsk last time and Bryan Smart’s runner is less exposed.
