      Verdict

      Step Quick is taken to resume winning ways while Business Class and Kind Sir rate the chief dangers. Peter Bowen's charge was a fairly impressive Market Rasen winner last month and looked unlucky not to follow up off today's mark next time after a bad blunder three out put paid to his chance. The son of All Haste looks on the upgrade and can prove ahead of the handicapper by atoning for his recent defeat. Business Class is a consistent sort who won't lack for fitness but appears in the grip of the assessor. Kind Sir has claims on the pick of last season's winning form but hasn't been seen since flopping at Catterick in February so Step Quick looks the solid alternative.
