Verdict
A novices handicap that is low on quality. IZAYTE, a winner at Warwick in May, was only beaten a length at Uttoxeter last time. He could have done without a 2lb rise but the opposition has been disappointing on the whole. Choirmaster has placed in his last three but doesn’t look entirely straightforward. Forget The Way has gone up 3lb for finishing second at Southwell but still has every chance of going one better with Newton Abbot third Cumhacht also likely to be thereabouts.
