Verdict

Just four runners for this feature handicap and we will give the vote to Key Time, You Too and Haatmey may be the ones to chase him home. The selection is a typically progressive handicapper from the Sir Mark Prescott yard. He absolutely bolted up at catterick last time and six pound penalty may not be enough to stop him making itb three wins from four outings this season. You Too ended last campaign with a smooth maiden success at Nottingham and she dropped away tamely on her return to the track at Redcar. She may have needed that run and the stable was out of form and so we should see a much better performance this afternoon. Haatmey won that Redcar event, but was a big disappointment next time out. If on a going day he has to be considered a threat. Mister Arjay was successful at Newcastle last time but may struggle to follow up in this tougher contest. Which brings us back to our selection Key Time.
