A wide-open handicap with narrow the vote in favour of MI LADDO. Behind a couple of these at Exeter last time, he was noted doing good late work to finish fourth, not least given the slow gallop. He can come out on top, possibly at the chief expense of Folly Gate and Gerard Mentor. Ingenuity is also worth a second look on debut for Alan Jones.
