Verdict

Amor Fati won this last year but recent form offers little prospect of a repeat. Amor Kethley is starting to slip down the weights again and Gabriele Malune takes off another 3lb but Brigand has picked up a penalty for last week’s course and distance success. Sepahi hung badly at Wolverhampton last month after winning at that track earlier but there are possibilities about Viola Park. Phoenix Star is in good form but is yet to race beyond 6f and there could be a strong gallop in this. That would suit PENARTH PIER, who has crept up the weights but is still running well and could offer a bit of value.
