This won’t take much winning but Whatsmeanttobe has failed to build on a couple of runs last season for Philip Hobbs. Lochinver will probably start favourite having followed up a win at Stratford with a third off this mark at Huntingdon but handicap debutants Avoir De Soins and Moonlit Sea are worth a market check. Formerly with Dermot Weld, ROYAL CONCORDE has managed just one decent effort in five for Linda Jewell but that was on his latest start in March and he’s very unexposed for his age.
