Verdict
Richard Hannon is responsible for four of the seven runners in this nursery. Always Fearless looks the pick on form and jockey bookings having placed twice, including over an extended 7f last time at Lingfield. Considering he was a shade keen, INCINERATOR was only headed inside the final furlong in a much stronger handicap last time at Newmarket. He’ll need to settle better here to get the trip but is the one to beat on that run as Walkonby looked a tricky customer when landing a seller two weeks ago.
