Mister Fizzbomb is taken to make all, with Revolving World, George's Flyer and Flashing Floozie others to consider. This moderate contest is not one to mull over for too long, but on the strength of a fair effort at Redcar eight-days ago, John Wainwright's charge is taken to register a second course-and-distance victory. That win last August was in a class 6 handicap, when a first-time visor was applied, and he showed signs of a return to form when given an enterprising ride at Redcar, making most until headed inside the final furlong. A similar performance here may well suffice. Revolving World missed the break here last time, but was successful at Ripon earlier, while George's Flyer is at least well treated on old form, and hails from a stable doing well at present. Of the remainder, Flashing Floozie should be settling in now after a spell in Jersey, and can pick up a small race in time for her shrewd trainer, but for the winner we like the look of Mister Fizzbomb.
