Verdict

Hardly a competitive handicap hurdle to bring the curtain down on the Cartmel season for 2017 and it won’t take much winning as there are very few solid profiles. OH SO GIGOLO may well be able to follow up his win here last time out despite the 9lb higher mark with his stable having been successful here on Saturday. He may face some competition upfront from Theatrical Style but that one has hardly been in much form of late. Pads didn’t get far on his last rune here but with his the Jardine yard fresh from winning the Ebor and a double here on Saturday he could get involved while Dotties Dilema can’t be ruled out back over hurdles. Saucysioux is the most interesting contender though hailing from a yard that have made a great start with the trip expected to suit now she has a recent run under her belt.
