In depth
Verdict
A wide open handicap here for punters to fathom with many in form rivals in opposition including Ellen Mooney, Poppyline and Smart Minster and we will take a chance on the last named. The three year old from the John Quinn yard showed improved form when second behind Acomb last time. He is still at the right end of the handicap and if he acts on the surface he could be value in a wide-open affair. Ellen Mooney rates the main danger she was a good second behind Qualitair Wings last time but she may struggle under her big weight. Poppyline is also worthy of respect on her best form but she is still a maiden after 16 attempts so is opposed on this occasion. Of the remainder Neven is from a very shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market while Pharoah¿s Gold is well weighted on his best form but that has come over a shorter trip so we are happy to side with Smart Minster.
