Verdict

YEALAND looks to have got in lightly for his handicap bow so Jennie Candlish's lightly-raced 5-y-o gets the vote in a handicap where plenty arrive with a question mark against them. Tommy Johnson also goes into handicaps with more to offer so rates the main threat, while Robert d'Ores can't be discounted if on song for his seasonal return.
