Verdict

Quantum gets the vote in this handicap with Malech and Kerriemuir Lass rating the main dangers. The selection was a never nearer third last time out behind Gambling Spirit. This more conventional track looks sure to suit and off a fair mark he will be hard to beat. Malech rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Mister Beat but he has yet to prove he stays this far and at the likely odds he looks worth taking on. Kerriemuir Lass is another that could go well on her latest third behind Wannabe Posh but she looks to have plenty of weight for what she has actually achieved. Ahmedy is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is hard to win with. Of the remainder, Campanile is from a shrewd in form yard and should be noted in the market but for the winner we return to Quantum.
