Verdict

None of this bunch inspire confidence but several have slipped down the handicap including AIR OF YORK The latter gets a token vote having won over track and trip in the past. Fantasy Justifier went close at Nottingham in August but has disappointed since, though he did win in soft ground last year while Keene's Pointe scored off a 10lb higher mark last season. The veteran Captain Scooby has also won off higher marks in the past.
