This is a tricky and competitive handicap in which we will side with BEE STING as the selection with both Previs and Hustle worth noting. The selection is six pounds higher in the ratings since winning over course and distance recently. He had shown promise as a three-year-old last year winning at Chester but did disappoint at Newbury on his seasonal reappearance in April. He is clearly not the easiest to train but has shown enough ability in his winning races to suggest he is good enough to win again. Previs has run consistently well all season winning at Sandown in the process. He has been dropped two pounds for his defeat at the same venue last time out when second to Australia Day and looks well enough treated to be in the shake up once again. Hustle has run some solid races this season, and did win at Lingfield early on in the year. He is though starting to look a little exposed off his current mark so should be treated with some caution.
