Verdict

Kk Lexion is unexposed and was a close-up third off this mark on his handicap debut at Kelso in May. There should be more to come this season while Quieto Sol was third over this trip at Market Rasen in April after getting off the mark at Exeter. The Tailgater made a winning start over hurdles in a maiden at Huntingdon but was then turned over when odds-on in a novice event at Market Rasen and looks harshly treated. GAELIC MYTH (NAP) suffered a setback after showing promise at the end of 2014 but finally began to realise his potential with a cosy victory at Ludlow in May. A 10lb hike in the weights hasn't done him any favours but there's a chance that he could develop into a decent handicapper this season so he gets the nod. Fair To Middling has been in the handicapper's grip for a while but is still preferred to the disappointing Angus Glens and the others.
