Verdict

Just the four runners and a scenario without another front runner in the field that could hand the initiative to Lucky Robin who faced pace pressure when taking the minor placing over this trip at Market Rasen last time. He gets on well with Brian Hughes (ridden him for five of his last six wins) and he’ll be hard to catch if allowed a soft lead off a competitive mark. He does face an in-form and improving rivals though in LICKLIGHTER who returned to winning ways last time and despite a 7lb rise is expected to follow up. Fort De L’Ocean often looks threatening in his races but his chasing efforts have been typified by tame finishing efforts which leave him vulnerable here.
  1. Licklighter
  2. Lucky Robin
  3. Fort De L'Ocean
