Verdict

Another ordinary handicap which has attracted a bumper entry. Few of those near the foot of the weights make much appeal, though Dazzling Rita continues her tumble down the ratings and could sneak into a place. King's Chorister often pops up when least expected while Hi Tide has enjoyed a measure of success around here in the past, though hasn't been seen since October. Denboy is less exposed than most while Last Echo could also get into the picture. Roll Of Thunder is quite consistent but VINEGAR HILL may well be good enough to defy the penalty he picked up for winning for the second time here last week.
