Verdict

A wide open handicap rounds off the card and the tentative vote is given to Active Asset who is taken to get the better of Kinrande and Reaching Out. The selection won well last time when beating Kanad at Goodwood. He remains on a handy mark and with conditions to suit he looks to have strong claims. Kinrande beat Sandy's Legend last time Lingfield but that was only a moderate contest and he looks to have more on his plate here. He has a chance and he is lightly-raced but he may just need the run on his seasonal reappearance. Reaching Out has been in good form of late and he should be suited by this slight step-up in trip. He is consistent and it would be a surprise if he is not able to make the frame. Sharp N Frosty is dropping down the handicap and is another that could go well at a price, but for the winner we will return to Active Asset.
