Verdict

The biggest handicap field of the day to end the card with; STRICTLYADANCER is the suggestion to follow up his New Year’s Day win at Fakenham and confirm the form with Todd especially as he still looks to have progress in him. Mead Vale has been running well and chased home a couple of well-handicapped types at Chepstow last time but his stamina for this trip must be in question. Superkalanistic will enjoy this drop in class but he does need a real test and this sharp track even over this trip may not provide that. If there’s one to watch in the market then it’s Taking A Chance who emanates from a good yard who are very good at getting the best (especially in handicaps) out of this type.
  1. Strictlyadancer
  2. Supakalanistic
  3. Taking A Chance
