The last in a succession of handicaps on the card can be taken by Night Prospector, while Azygous might turn out to be the main danger. Night Prospector ran on well to land a Bath seller on good to soft last time, but acts on any ground and also at this track, even though he has not yet won here. This 2lb higher mark is negated by his claimer, who won on him last time, and he can see this out to follow up. Azygous is now 18lb lower than his last win, which came a couple of seasons ago. He has been kept almost exclusively to the minimum trip and he can go very well over it again here. Harrison's Flyer has a pretty good strike rate, relishes this trip and acts on any ground, so with c&d winning form and a mark 21lb below his highest win he is very much respected. Walragnek is interesting in this company for the first time proper and from an easy enough mark and money for him would be interesting, while Jayanjay likes it here and from 7lb below his latest course win a return to form is not ruled out. Yet another race on the card where caution is advised and Night Prospector is the suggestion.
