Billy Roberts never looked like being caught at Beverley last month but has a 7lb rise in the weights to contend with. Doeadeer won a Chelmsford maiden in March and Dominannie made the odds-on Carenot pull out all the stops at Beverley but this looks a fairly competitive handicap for the prize money. Quick N Quirky will appreciate the big drop in class while Specialv and The Lynch Man should be thereabouts but we'll take a chance on the fitness of PENWORTHAM. Fast going suited Richard Fahey's gelding last year and he should stay the extra furlong around here. He had no luck whatsoever on his final start at Pontefract and has been dropped 4lb since.
