Verdict

This looks a straightforward opportunity for DIGGERATT. He ran out the winner of a similar contest over 1m3f here last month, comes out best at the weights under today's race conditions and the drop back in distance will not inconvenience him. Lakeman could give him the most to think about having won at Ayr on his latest start but Starry Mount was well beaten here last time and Briary Mac has little to recommend her.
