In depth
Verdict
TOMMYTWOHOOTS showed a big improvement when second at Chelmsford on his handicap debut and this won’t take much winning. Zarina Grande also finished a bit closer at Newcastle last time while Nortonthorpe Boy posted a better effort at Lingfield though that was over 6f. Totem, Major J and Spark Fury all go handicapping for the first time and are worth a second glance with improvement a possibility.
