Verdict
This is anybody's race and the token vote goes to SMOKETHATTHUNDERS as he has more scope than most on his handicap debut after scoring at Wolverhampton. Little Choosey is also a likely improver and it's too soon to write off Top Trail after a disappointing effort on the Polytrack last time. Gracious George ended last season with a win over 7f while Whipper Snapper scored over today's trip at Kempton in December. 5f winner Freddy With A Y disappointed on his comeback but Millers Wharf, Extrasolar and Baltic Gin were all placed last time and could figure again.
