Verdict

Fergal O’Brien looks to have found a nice opening for his Sissinghurst to attempt to follow-up his easy win of last week at Huntingdon and he looks well-in at the weights but he might face a couple of wild card improvers here. One of those would be top weight Manny Owens who is clearly of interest taking in handicap company for the first time but ST ANDREWS is another of similar ilk from the Ian Wiliams yard that is in cracking form and although he’s not shown much in this sphere he has improved on the Flat of late and may be able to carry that over here. Most of the others look to have plenty on at the weights with Chevalgris not certain to back-up his last run although Captain George isn’t totally forgotten with his last run hinting that he could take a hand in this sphere.
  1. St Andrews
  2. Sissinghurst
  3. Manny Owens
