Verdict
Paul Hanagan prefers Ffos Las maiden winner Thammin to Naafer and the former should figure on his handicap debut. Merry Banter is upped in class off a higher mark having won at Ripon recently and Compton Poppy and Dandy Flame are less exposed. The latter was up against it in Group 3 company last time and KAMRA also lowers his sights having failed to figure in a Class 2 nursery at York. He won at Nottingham before that and is reunited with winning partner Jim Crowley for this.
