Hopefully the second division of this poor quality handicap will hold more interest as it’s hard to make a case for the majority of these in what could be a messy race due to the lack of pace. MABO comes into this with the strongest form having run well enough in a similar contest here last time over 7f, the step back to 1m should help him a great deal. Caledonia Laird would be of more interest were this race at his preferred venue of Wolverhampton but he should still be in the mix with likely pace setter N Over J well positioned to lead. The biggest danger looks to be 3yo Cheerful she gained attention on her sole Polytrack start and has the scope to do better in the future.
