Verdict
This looks a decent maiden for the track with several holding solid claims. Dulce Panem has been placed in handicaps in his last three starts but his career record is now 0-32. Huntsmans Jog was pulled up over this trip at Chepstow but still has time on his side and Eva's Oskar placed at Ffos Las and Newbury last season. Flemens Story took a step forward when third at Haydock in March and has wind surgery since but TARA WEST will strip fitter for a run in a bumper last month. Anthony Honeyball’s winning pointer will enjoy this big step up in trip and could be a nice prospect.
