Verdict
Flying Pursuit has been in good heart of late but needs to come down in the handicap while East Street Revue, Laughton and Belledesert could also struggle to defy their current marks after recent successes. Lady Clair pulled off a surprise win at Chester last time and could be of interest here if she’s turned the corner, but in a competitive handicap, it could be worth taking a chance on SILHUETTE. She has flopped badly at a higher level on a couple of occasions but there was plenty to like about her two victories last season and she appears to be on a reasonable mark for her handicap debut.
