Verdict
Sky Dive wasn't beaten far last time and he can gain his compensation tonight and get his head in front; Inspector Clouseau and Prince Kalamoun rate as the main dangers. Luca Cumani's colt looked the most likely winner travelling into the straight at Great Leighs last time but he hung under pressure and he could only finish third behind Aromatherapy. Like our selection, the winner was well-backed that day so he was clearly fancied, and we are prepared to give the lightly-raced Sky Dive another chance to get the losses back. Inspector Clouseau is a consistent type and he lost no caste in defeat last time when chasing home Military Power at York. He has everything in his favour again today and he should give our selection a race. Prince Kalamoun won over this course and distance last time when beating Elliwan, but that was a maiden and he will find life tougher now he is back in handicap company. He has also given the impression that he will be suited even better by a slightly longer trip. Mangham won well at Ripon and then shaped with promise on his handicap debut last time, so he is another who could go well. A tricky race but we will take a leap of faith and nominate Sky Dive to land the prize.
