A Group-class horse in Germany, Aspectus is nothing like the force of old nowadays. But he's slipped a jawdropping 30lb in the handicap since this time last year and has been placed recently. Oh So Saucy has solid claims on her best form but has shown little in two starts this term, while the lightly-raced Mashatu gets a first-time visor as he searches for his first win. Two Certainties could figure if handling the ground and Exopuntia has place claims. but the revitalised BOLD MARC looks the safest option. He escapes a penalty for winning an apprentice race under today's rider at Haydock a week ago, handles the underfoot conditions and has won off higher marks in the past.
