Verdict

This is a wide open looking handicap in which we like the look of GREYSTOKE PRINCE with both Shamrock Lady and Fly Kiss worth noting. The selection has been a model of consistency this season not finishing out of the first two in all his races. He managed to break his maiden tag in a Kempton handicap back in April and looks more than capable of winning off his current mark. Shamrock Lady is four pounds higher since winning here over seven furlongs. This drop in trip should not pose as a problem and any market moves should be noted. Fly Kiss is another that is given respect having caught the eye on her last two starts and with conditions in his favour he can be in the shake up once again.
