Verdict

Pennies And Pounds shows her true ability at Bangor and nowhere else, but at the age of eleven, there's surely better options than her even in a race as weak as this contest. Way Of The World is potentially very nicely treated from his current mark, and this 2m3f+ Hereford regular gets another handy 5lb taken from his back by Mickey Hamill. However, the obvious selection is the Donald McCain trained upped in trip, handicap debutante OFCOURSEIWILL. He did okay over a shorter trip here latest, with his previous Kelso effort also reading very well in this company.
