Verdict

Shetland Bus has been winning over longer trips but is clearly at the top of his game, though GET BACK GET BACK looks better handicapped now. He’s been dropped 2lb since chasing home subsequent easy winner Hang In There in July and is only a pound higher than for his last win. Sunrise Ruby could be a danger if recapturing her best form and Dal Horrisgle has won his last two and is unexposed making his handicap debut. Bangor runner-up Hurricane Ali is another to consider.
