Verdict

Mr Strutter won on this card 12 months ago and beat Dapper Man at Thirsk in September but has done all of his winning at a lower level. FLYING FOXY has had just the four starts and won his maiden over track and trip last July, That came after a lay-off so his absence since August isn’t overly concerning and a mark of 66 looks workable. Desert Ace looks the pick of Paul Midgley’s two runners but a high draw won’t help Savannah Beau. Racquet has won four times but never over a trip this short, though is still nicely treated despite a recent victory at Wetherby.
