This is another competitive handicap in which ISHETOO is taken to get the better of Hamish McGonagall and River Falcon. The selection is a really progressive sort and he won a competitive handicap at York when last seen out. The yard are in decent form and he has a good draw so he makes plenty of appeal. Hamish McGonagall is a course and distance winner and he wasn't far behind our selection last time out. He has a handy pull in the weights here and he has the best of the draw and he should run our selection close. River Falcon also has a pull in the weights with Ishetoo after finishing third in that same York race and on these revised terms he should be capable of turning the form around. However, we think there could be more to come from Ishetoo and for that reason he is put forward to record another success.
