Has won both starts since being gelded and arrives for this 1lb ahead of the handicapper despite his penalty. Only question is whether he will be as effective here as he is at Newcastle.
Winner of a minor race at Brighton (6f). Has made little progress since and has joined new yard for 5,500 gns. Returns from three months off and trip could be on the sharp side.
Raced freely in a slowly run 6f contest last time, but shaped well enough to suggest he can handle his current mark. Drop to 5f should help and he rates a danger to all.
Appreciated the switch to handicapping and drop to this trip when making all last time. The time was slow, however, and he has more to do here in better company off this mark.
Drop back to the minimum trip last time saw this Kyllachy filly run with credit at Wolverhampton. Has every chance here despite a 2lb rise in the weights.
Forecasts
Wiff Waff (1/1), Becker (11/4), Nampara (5/1), Sir Hector (9/1), Pranceabootthetoon (16/1)
Becker and Nampara went well on their handicap debuts and are capable of winning races from their current marks. The trip may be on the sharp side for Pranceaboutthetoon and Sir Hector had the run of a muddling race in weaker company last time. WIFF WAFF is on a hat-trick following two comfortable successes at Newcastle. He remains on the right side of the handicapper and, if handling the new surface, is the one they all have to beat.
- Wiff Waff
- Nampara
- Becker
