A 10lb rise for winning at Wolverhampton looked a bit hard on Admiralty and so it proved as he struggled at Yarmouth last time. Satwa Story returned a disappointing favourite on his handicapping bow having won on the Polytrack before that and Twenty One Choice has found life tough off his current mark since scoring over track and trip back in April. Red Art only won a seller at Leicester last time and Caldercruix is best at Southwell nowadays. With doubts surrounding so many of these, a chance is taken on CANON LAW as he goes handicapping for the first time after landing a maiden race at Warwick.
