Verdict
Hoh Hoh Hoh, Diane's Choice and Mr Garston are the three to look at here and Hoh Hoh Hoh is taken to bounce back to winning form. Mr Garston won on his debut at Sandown in August last year but hasnt been seen since. That was not an unexpected success and despite his long lay off, Marcus Tregoning's runner can go well. A winner at Lingfield in August, Dianes Choice has won at Leicester since and was just held off last time. She has gone up the handicap but can go close in her current form. A winner at Salisbury two outings ago over six furlongs, Hoh Hoh Hoh reverted to the minimum trip when finishing a close sixth at Bath last time, staying on well near the finish. He failed to live up to expectations when with Andrew Balding but can score again here. Hoh Hoh Hoh can leave the punters laughing.
