In depth

Verdict

Mick Is Back hit winning form last time out and can follow up this afternoon, Show Business and Strike Force could be the main rivals. The selection looked well beaten as they turned for home in that Wolverhampton contest, but stayed on well in the closing stage to win going away. A similar effort could be good enough on this his handicap debut. Down at the foot of the handicap Show Business doesn't look badly treated after showing improved form last time out. Meanwhile Strike Force cannot be ruled out if you ignore his latest effort. Best Option and Totally Free are others to consider for each-way purposes, but Mick Is Back is hard to oppose in his current mood and he gets our vote.
