Verdict

Pendle Lady has been going well enough but has a very tough task from the widest draw of all. Chester Aristocrat didn't quite last out a mile at Musellburgh so this trip should be ideal though his overall form is moderate. Ptolemy has been steadily progressing and attracted massive support before landing a Redcar maiden. With further improvement likely he can make his presence felt on his handicap debut though DOUBLE CEE looks the one to be on. Richard Fahey's charge was an impressive winner of a Hamilton handicap last week and a 6lb penalty is halved by Lee Topliss' claim.
