Verdict

A race which features a few possibly interesting horses. Of the handicap debutants, Main Fact is worthy of market monitoring, whilst the top-weighted Handy Hollow should appreciate the switch to handicap company, given that he's likely to struggle to make a further mark in maiden/novice company. A sizeable shout should go out to the very dangerously handicapped (but badly out of form) Hartside, who looks worthy of an each-way interest on the off chance. However, based upon recent evidence, both Mitcd and LUCARNO DANCER are far more likely winners. Given the clear market confidence shown at Hexham last month, plenty was expected of the Ray Shiels trained seven-year-old mare, and therefore a revised mark of 84 (7lb higher) shouldn't be enough to stop her following up.
  1. Lucarno Dancer
  2. Mitcd
  3. Hartside
