Verdict
No Day Never doesn’t look particularly well treated but he’s shown ability and is one of the more likely winners of this with Saffie Osborne taking off 5lb. Escobedo didn’t appear to handle the Polytrack on his final start last year and makes his handicap debut as does former stable companion Epidemic. Whiskey 'n' Chips ran his best race so far on soft going and Devil's Cub has plenty of form on the surface. Typical Man has gone up 9lb for winning over 7f at Doncaster whereas SIR TAWEEL has only been raised 6lb for a course and distance victory five weeks ago and the latter can take this step up in grade in his stride.
