MI LADDO won a handicap over track and trip earlier in the week. An apprentice’s allowance negates a penalty for that success and he should go close again back at this level. Aria Rose finished closer in classified company at Southwell last time and could figure while Bug Boy may well appreciate this return to a longer trip. Kerrera has no easy task on these terms and the remainder are even harder to recommend.
