Verdict
Nothing makes strong appeal and the fact that Hatem is towards the head of the weights after finishing runner-up in a Fakenham seller just five days ago says much about the level of the contest. It's interesting that Dan Skelton is persisting with Spader despite a string of disappointing efforts and he must receive a market check, whilst Simply Business is another worthy of a betting note off her lowly weight after a wind operation. Her yard's winners are frequently well backed. Character Onesie makes most appeal from a form perspective as he's essentially solid and reliable but SALIX is open to any amount of improvement, showed much more promise last time and looks on a very workable mark for this handicap bow.
