Verdict

The Fisio comes here under a double penalty but despite winning on both fast and soft surfaces, his burden of 9st 10lb is a lot to carry for a two-year-old and he is opposed this evening. Avening, who will have the benefit of a experienced claimer taking 7lb off his back, finished 2nd to Floppie Disk earlier in the season and with Richard Hannon's string in good order, he holds solid claims. The Kiddy Kid was outclassed in the Coventry Stakes latest while Miss Twti's win has come in selling grade.
