A tricky handicap to solve but Guto looks the form pick and is given the tentative vote to follow up on his recent Catterick win at the expense of Jucebabe and Town House. The selection was winning for the first time since February and had dropped to what looked like a decent mark. Connections are keen to run with a penalty before the handicapper gets a chance to access him, so he therefore is the one horse in the race to stay on the right side of. Jucebabe is not an easy horse to win with, but has run some respectable races in defeat this season. He again has slipped down the weights so any market moves should be noted. Town House won an amateur riders race at Leicester in June but has since been well held in similar races to this, so is one to treat with caution. So for the winner we return to Guto.
