Verdict
A poor handicap here where few have any good recent form to show but MEIKLE BARFIL makes the selection here where he looks to have the edge over Mister Incredible and Rann Na Cille. Milton Bradley's gelding showed he can still make his mark in handicaps last time and is running well at present. He was the winner of a classified stakes at Kempton earlier this month and comes out of a yard in decent form and should be a commanding presence in relatively poor company. Mister Incredible is a reasonable type for the grade and will be looking to build on his performance here last time where he was unfortunate to have come in second, if he can match that performance he should figure here. Rann Na Cille makes his track debut here and should the mare make the most of the ground she is in with a chance, although a small one. It¿s best to check the market for the chances of the rest but our selection Meikle Barfil should prove his worth.
