A low grade but competitive affair in which HIGHLIGHT REEL may take advantage of guaranteed fitness. The Bastiman inmate came home strongly after a tardy stalls exit in a large-field amateur riders' handicap on turf last time and was arguably unlucky not to get his head in front, eventually beaten just three parts of a length. He remains well treated off a mark of 49 and David Allan is a good booking. The pair sharing topweight billing are both shortlisted with Rhyme Scheme suggested as next best on the back of a competitive recent effort at Brighton and David Egan is an eye-catching booking for the Appleby team. Kodimoor and Antagonize can also play a part.
