Verdict
KING OSWALD got back to winning ways at Wolverhampton last month and it may be worth sticking with James Unett’s charge, who boasts a decent record here and is still 3lb lower than when scoring over the course and distance in 2017. Spanish Mane might be the danger under talented 5lb claimer Dylan Hogan as she was still prominent on her reappearance here over 7f when clipping heels and coming down. She won at Wetherby and Musselburgh last year and likes fast ground. Her stablemate Boxatricks probably has each-way claims while Sir Jamie could figure if on a going day. Rab Havlin boasts a solid record on Molten Lava but he may be better over a bit further on Turf.
