This is a wide open handicap in which plenty can be given a chance, and we will side with QUINSMAN to get the better of Mighty Moon, Profit's Reality and Amanda Carter. Quinsman has not done a lot wrong of late and he does look to be on an upward curve. He showed a good attitude to beat Taste The Wine and Sircozy last time and in the hope that there might be more to come we will put him forward as a bet. Mighty Moon would certainly have claims on his best turf form but he has a lengthy absence to overcome and his best form is over a longer trip. Profit's Reality should be suited by the return to this trip and he was only narrowly beaten when last seen out at Southwell in December. Amanda Carter has been in good form over hurdles and if she handles the surface on her all-weather debut then she could be of interest. Chalice Welcome and War of The Roses have both won over the course and distance and they could go well at each-way prices, but Quinsman makes more appeal and he gets the vote.
