Verdict
It could be the turn of BOSCASTLE today as Hughie Morrison’s filly has been knocking on the door of late and has been left on the same mark as when second at Chelmsford last month. Licinius is one of the least exposed and makes his handicap debut at a modest level. Proceed has similar credentials but Destinys Rock was well below par when last seen here in September and the likes of Sosian, Dance Me and Polly's Gold appear fully exposed. Amity Island has only won at Southwell so far and also has a bit to prove on these terms while Lamb Chop steps up in trip again.
