      Verdict

      This is tougher than the seller Merry Secret won at Leicester last week. He should confirm running with third-placed Time Has Wings but a couple of the others are preferred. Taylored has been threatening to score before a below-par effort at Beverley but VENTURA RASCAL won a handicap on this card last year and Kevin Ryan’s charge gets the nod returning to today’s trip having won over a mile at Pontefract back in April. Hope Probe has a shout on these terms and looks best of the rest.
