Verdict
Rajah Eman is best in at the weights according to the official BHB handicapper but has been well below par of late and the fitting of a first-time visor is discouraging. Weet-A-Minute has registered five course victories and is useful on his day as he showed when landing a competitive handicap at Leicester in March. This is his level but gives the impression that everything has to go his way and Moyne Pleasure makes more appeal. Nick Littmoden's charge ran a fair race in defeat at handicap level (off a mark of 72) here last month and can take advantage of a significant drop in grade.
