Verdict

SPACE ARTIST usually wins when allowed his own way up front, as he was at Chester last time. He's already a winner over track and trip and is preferred to Reqaaba as the latter was engaged to run here yesterday. Secret Missile ran no sort of race over 6f last month but had scored over track and trip before that while another course and distance winner, Edged Out, looks to be in the handicapper's grip. Both of Tartary's wins came over 6f and Daylight doesn't look particularly well handicapped on his recent form.
