Verdict
ISAAN QUEEN finished well ahead of Sosume when returning a clear winner at Yarmouth on her handicap bow and may well defy a 6lb rise. Michaels Choice won a lower grade race at Bath last time while Tin Hat has slid 7lb down the weights since last seen handicapping and could be in the mix. Tinto, Muthhila and Pirate all drop down in class and are preferred to the likes of Astronaut and Grandstand but King's Girl and Drumnadrochit are worth a second glance stepping up from novice company.
