Verdict
Tip Two Win overcame trouble in-running to make a winning debut over course and distance but that has earned him a 6lb penalty for this slightly better race. AL BARG is a brother to a winner and a half-brother to two others, including Irish Listed winner Beach Bunny. He only found one too good on his debut over 7f at Haydock and shouldn’t be inconvenienced by dropping back a furlong so gets the nod. Usher, a half-brother to a winning miler, wouldn’t need to be anything special to get involved while Wear It Well and Adulate are likely improvers.
