        In depth

        Verdict

        Strikeen is of interest on his handicap debut and is just prefered to recent winner Shouldntbethere and Global Traffic. The Terry Mills trained cold has shown plenty of promise in three races to date having only been beaten a total of eight lengths. This doesn't look the strongest of races and he can go close despite top-weight. Shouldntbethere hit winning form in a class six event at Wolverhampton, just getting the better of Emergency Services. A repeat of that effort should see him involved in the finish. Global Traffic was also in that Wolverhampton contest and should get a lot closer to the winner on today's terms. The pick of the others could be Nicado, but we return to Strikeen as the most likely winner.
