Verdict

TWICE LUCKY's last-fence fall at Sedgefield last month left Urban Gale well clear but Sue Smith's gelding made amends over this track and trip nine days later and may be capable of following up after that confidence-booster. Magic Present can only improve for his first run over fences at Market Rasen while The Shrimp is on a hat-trick after wins here and at Perth and will love conditions. Presenting Junior and Know The Rules might be back in the handicapper's grip, however, and Solis and Chicago Outfit also appear to have something to find at the weights.
