Verdict

BROTHER IN ARMS has a tendency to start slowly and carries some risk as a result. Nevertheless, he overcame that handicap to justify stable confidence last week and record a decent time too. He escapes a penalty and this looks a less competitive race. There are few viable alternatives in this. Both No Not Again and Coverham have doubts about their battling qualities. Both are capable of reaching the frame but would be vulnerable in a tight finish. Of the pair Coverham could do better as he is fresh from a break and has moved to a trainer who does well with his small string. Silver Mist is interesting on handicap debut and is worth a check in the market for a race that will take little winning.
