Verdict

COME OUT FIRING has been in form of his life recently and is taken to continue in his winning ways, while both Bennynthejets and Lord Baskerville are worth noting. Andy Haynes is a trainer to follow and has been producing winners under both codes this summer. Come Out Firing has already won him three races, landing his hat-trick at Newton Abbot earlier in the month. He was not discredited when finishing second to Classic Swain at the same venue last time out and although he has been raised a further 7lbs for his troubles he is sure to be in the shake up once again. Bennynthejets is 9lbs higher for winning over course and distance last month. His trainer does well at this track so he warrants plenty of respect. Lord Baskerville won a seller at Uttoxeter last time out but he does not look the best handicapped of horses so others are preferred. Come Out Firing is the form horse in the race and gets the vote.
