Verdict

Quite a few potential winners to consider here with INDIAN BRAVE getting the after running a good second at Chepstow last time to one who was probably well-in at the weights. Besides that run another plus point for him would be the 9-15 record that his trainer, Neil Mulholland has with his handicap chasers here. Mortems Leam and Never Up are two others that should get involved with both having run sound enough races last time out. Mah Mate Bob should find a return to this track and a slight ease in grade in his favour whilst Henry’s Joy can’t be ignored although he not one to rely on too heavily.
  1. Indian Brave
  2. Mah Mate Bob
  3. Never Up
