Verdict
Another wide open handicap. Marjurita won well over course and distance last time out when defeating Te Quiero and although he has risen in the weights he will be hard to beat with conditions again in his favour. Scented Air rates the main danger he has won his last two races in good style however this looks a much more competitive affair and it is a higher class handicap. Glory Quest would also have a chance on his best form of late but that has been over much longer trips. Skylarker has been running under both codes of late and he would have a chance on his best form. However on recent efforts he looks as if he is in the handicappers grip. Basinet was fourth behind Brandy Cove last time out at Southwell over a mile. This longer trip should suit and he could run well at a fair price off what looks a fair mark. Bressbee was behind Marjurita last time but he is better off at the weights and there should not be much between them. Of the remainder Yenaled is well weighted on his best form, is from a yard in good form and he could run well at an each-way price.
