Verdict

Song Light has a string of placed efforts to his name with the latest coming in a novices' handicap at Newton Abbot last month. He should be thereabouts again but BENBECULA is preferred. The latter ran well in a Listed handicap at Market Rasen on his latest start and a similar effort would see him go close in this company. Rayvin Black and Presenting Arms showed ability last year but this is tougher than the seller Meetings Man won last season and Lyssio makes more appeal.
