Verdict
Penny Royale finished ahead of Atreus at Redcar last month and will have come on for the outing. She should figure but TAKAFOL looks the one to beat in this having gone close off today's mark at Catterick last week with Zebelini back in sixth. U Think Ur Funny also found only one too good in a decent seller last time and she looks a threat ahead of Bahango, who floundered back in handicap company after winning a maiden race at Wolverhampton. Wiseton was still beaten five lengths last time and is harder to fancy.
