Verdict

A very poor handicap that may fall to Trevian, Machinate and Master Joseph are two others that could go well. The selection is trained by Milton Bradley who continues in great form. He landed a Chepstow handicap at the end of August and has lost nothing in defeat in two races since. He still looks on a very fair mark and looks the one to beat. Machinate is hard to assess having beaten a modest field at Catterick last time. There could be more to come and he may have been let in here lightly. Master Joseph cannot be left out of calculations as he has solid form this season and hails from the powerful Mich Channon yard. Dispol Isle and Gem Bien are also solid performers in this type of event, but our idea of the winner is Trevian.
