Verdict
Dawerann has been eased in the handicap after his third here last month but remains 7lb higher than his last winning mark, so preference is for ITS PANDORAMA (NAP) who has improved with every run for Brian Ellison and put in a commanding performance to win at Carlisle. He looks well treated on his handicap debut and the extra two furlongs should suit. Caerleon Kate has been running well in maiden company and has place prospects on her return to handicaps, and Schlipf was staying on modestly at Cartmel so may appreciate this trip. Letemgo is on a handy mark but may need the run while Drumhart has been poor this year.
