Verdict

Whatwouldyouknow found one too good yet again at Wolverhampton a week ago and BAD ATTITUDE also finished runner-up over track and trip last time. But the latter was beaten only a neck by Beat The Breeze when finishing six lengths clear of the rest and may come out best today on that form. Essgee Nics will appreciate the return to today’s distance and First Target may improve stepping up in trip for his handicap debut.
