Verdict
This is a competitive handicap in which Teehee, Rare Coincidence, Yorker and Book Matched all look to have claims and we will side with Yorker to lead them home. The selection goes well on this track and is racing at his optimum trip here. He has been a little disappointing of late but the form of his second behind Warden Warren at Wolverhampton reads well in the context of this race, and as such he is taken to score. Teehee was disappointing last time at Wolverhampton behind Cape St Vincent, but that was over 6 furlongs and he will be a different proposition over this longer more suitable trip. Rare Coincidence has hinted at a return to form on his last two outings and he looks to have decent place prospects, so he is worth considering. Book Matched is held by Rare Coincidence on their recent Southwell run, so he will have to improve to feature at the finish here, and we are happy to stick with Yorker as our idea of the winner.
