Verdict
ASTAROTH has improved for going handicapping having recorded a double last month. He looks worth sticking with in this though Showmedemoney was beaten less than a length at Ffos Las on his handicap bow and can figure. He makes more appeal than Attache, who also showed progress at Salisbury last time. Elsaab, Incumbent and Snow Hawk are preferred of those handicapping for the first time.
