Verdict
FREDDY FANATAPAN didn’t beat much over 2m4f here last month but these aren’t much better. He’s only five so should have more to offer and the longer trip shouldn’t be a problem. Handy Hollow is a course and distance winner who made a satisfactory reappearance at Bangor while Present Chief looks to make amends for a costly defeat here last month but is becoming expensive to follow. Airton is on a long losing run but Hello Fellas is worth a market check with his stable firing on all cylinders.
