Verdict
This is a weak handicap but Lake Washington is the least attractive of Venetia Williams’ three runners on today’s card. Instingtive won at Ayr and Carlisle earlier this year but has been well beaten the last twice off this mark. TITUS BOLT hasn’t won over hurdles in more than four years but has been successful on the Flat in the interim. He paid the price for an aggressive ride at Musselburgh earlier this month and has stronger claims in this off a lenient mark. Hello Fellas probably has more scope than most and a case could also be made for Permission Granted. Wind Of Hope is one of three course and distance winners so can’t be ignored.
