This looks a competitive finale considering it’s a Class 6 handicap but the fitting of blinkers appears to have transformed TIME HAS WINGS. She was impressive at Carlisle last week and it’s no surprise to see her turned out again under penalty given she will 9lb higher in the weights from next week. The Moohaajim filly is preferred to stable companion Attaboy Roy, who was a disappointing favourite at Brighton, but Enderman is interesting as he found 7f on soft going too far at Carlisle while Elegant Ellen isn’t overburdened on her handicap bow. Tamaska bids for the hat-trick but today’s going may not be quick enough and Blissful Song may be best over 5f. Dajraan has a cracking pedigree, however, and this could be his best trip after fading over 7f at Southwell last time. Unashamed will need to improve on his third at Ripon to figure.
