Hard Solution is 0-10 but reverts to selling company having finishing second in a maiden handicap at Redcar last week. B Fifty Two is well treated nowadays and was also runner-up last time, at Thirsk, while Ninjago won in this grade at the same track. MUHALLAB is among the least exposed and can probably be forgiven his run over this trip at Ripon last week where he was trapped wide and unable to find any cover. He could offer a bit of value here as Amazing Alba has switched stables since his third at Nottingham and Gunnabedun is best on Fibresand.
