Verdict
YASIR won a claimer at Towcester back in November. He's had eight runs since on the Flat and over hurdles without scoring but looks suited by small fields and is possibly the one to beat in this. Walkabout Creek has become very disappointing and was still beaten 19 lengths when second in a seller at Taunton last month. Captain Sharpe won a handicap under today's amateur at Newcastle in December but has lost the plot since while it's difficult to have much faith in Deise Dynamo nowadays. One In A Row and Lucky Boots have plenty to find at the weights.
