Few make any appeal in a weak handicap but Mamoo is back on a winning mark and kept on well for third at Market Rasen recently behind the runner-up EMMA BEAG. The latter was denied by only a nose on her first outing since July and another bold bid looks likely. Samtu faded away in the closing stages reverting to hurdling at Musselburgh last time having slipped down the weights while Fortia is another on the slide but it’s difficult to make a case for any of the rest in their current form.
