Verdict

COMPUTABLE won over 5f here recently and has been raised 8lb for his trouble. But this looks a less competitive sprint and another bold bid is expected from Tim Easterby’s charge. Zac Brown scored over 6f here on his penultimate start when beating Confessional but something went amiss last time and Equally Fast is preferred having won over today’s distance at Bath last month. Lucky Beggar may finish closer back in this lower grade and Venturous should be sharper for a recent comeback and slips further down the weights.
