ALADDIN'S LAMP is given the vote to land this handicap with both Countrywide City and Big Apple Boy worth noting. The selection is now 10 pounds higher for winning at Kempton last time out which will make life tougher from now on. That said he still looks like he is improving with experience and for that reason he is worth staying on the right side of for the time being. Countrywide City broke his maiden at Warwick in June and has only been lightly raced since. He was not beaten far on both his last two attempts and another bold bid can be expected. But for the winner we return to Aladdin's Lamp.
