A wide open handicap here and many would have chances on their best form but the draw will prove all important and the principals look to be Dizzy In The Head, Paddywack, Artie, Blackheath and Kings College Boy and the confident vote goes to Paddywack. The selection from the David Chapman yard won well last time out when defeating Tally and although he is rising in the weights he will be hard to beat from what looks a good draw here. Artie would be a danger to all on his form this season but he will need a miracle here to win from stall one. Blackheath is another that could go well he he was a fair second behind Cd Flyer last time and a reproduction of that effort would give him definite place claims. Kings College Boy is another in form and he is sure to have the race run to suit but he to has been done no favours by the draw. Dizzy In The Head has been in the form of her life of late and won well last time out when defeating Cape St Vincent but she will find this harder from a poor draw and under her penalty. Of the remainder Catch The Cat goes well at this track and has a good draw so could go well at a price but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Paddywack.
