Verdict
Tilsworth Micky has landed two of his last three starts but is now 10lb higher than when landing the first of those two successes at Chelmsford in December. However, e has been partnered by George Baker on just two occasions, both of which have resulted in a victory, so the combination must surely go close once again. PUSHKIN MUSEUM created a really good impression here recently when landing an amateur riders' handicap in some style and has improved with each run since joining his current yard from Richard Fahey in December. His defeat of Oor Jock reads well as the latter has since returned to Ireland to land a competitive Dundalk sprint handicap. Tony Carroll's horses continue to run well and his course and distance winner Wedgewood Estates should also go well as she was third to Tilsworth Micky last time and should get closer here on 6lb better terms. Socialites Red has a form claim but has been done no favours with an unfavourable draw.
