Verdict
Hoh Hoh Hoh is more than capable of taking the honours in this handicap having slipped to a fair mark but he has no experience of the Fibresand and looks best left out of calculations in a race taken to go to the in-form WHERE'S REILEY, who is preferred to Rebel Duke. The Ollie Pears-trained gelding won his fourth race here when successful over course and distance when last seen at the beginning of the year and he has to be respected despite having gone up 8lbs since then. David Nicholls has his string in good heart so Fol Hollow has to be considered on his reappearance having not been seen since September, while Ruth Carr's Excusez Moi also comes back after a long break but the yard's runners are not in great form. Mark Johnston does have his team going really well and his runner, Thebes, has to be respected having been running well at Wolverhampton in recent starts and he has gone well here in the past. Bryn Palling's Arthur's Edge showed improved form at the back end of the last turf flat season and has every chance if ready for his return but preference is for Where's Reiley, who can do little wrong at present. David Barron's gelding has won his last three starts over course and distance and has given the suggestion that there is more to come from him so he can defy the penalty for his latest success.
