Brooklands Lad,Dangerousdanmagru and Eggmount look the three to concentrate on in this handicap chase and the confident vote is given to Brooklands Lad. The selection won with plenty in hand when beating Barton Hill last time out and although he has a penalty for that win he is taken to defy the handicapper. Dangerousdanmagru rates the main danger on his best form but he took a heavy fall last time out and it is hard to know if his confidence has been effected. Eggmount has dropped to a handy mark and it would be no surprise if he bounced back to form on this faster surface. Of the remainder Loriko D'airy is from a yard in form and should be noted in the market but for the winner we return to Brooklands Lad.
