Verdict
GOOD VIBRATION can end a frustrating run of seconds with a victory here. He finished ahead of a couple of higher rated horses when second in a novice event at the track on Boxing Day won by Point The Way and is now handicapping for the first time. Carlo Rocks won a handicap at Southwell in December but a 12lb rise proved beyond him last time while Up And Go has slipped back down the weights having won off a higher mark over fences at Newcastle at this time last year.
