Verdict

Final Reminder won over course and distance last May and is only 3lb higher so has a chance in a modest handicap. Fourth here last time and a winner earlier at Newcastle, Stoney Rover shouldn’t be far away with Edward Austin taking off 5lb but SHOESHINE BOY is expected to reverse Carlisle running with Don Brocco on better terms and can finally get his head in front now he’s shown he stays 3m.
