In depth

Verdict

The unpredictable Hab Reeh is due one of his better efforts and has won twice at Ayr this year while Captain Scooby won at the latter track in May but has gone off the boil since. Euxton and The Armed Man are usually thereabouts at this level without threatening to get their heads in front but SUGAR TOWN ended a long losing run with a two-length success at Redcar last week. She has 6lb extra to carry but should be thereabouts once again in this company.
