Verdict

The Little Fizzer can land this handicap at the main expense of Vigano and Upstanding. The selection wasn't beaten far behind Baytown Blaze last time and this lightly-raced filly showed enough that day and on her debut to make her the one to beat this afternoon. Vigano has got some fair form and he is dropped in trip here. He was slowly away last time so he will need a smarter break today if he is to make his mark. Upstanding was making her all-weather debut and returning from a break at Southwell last time so under the circumstances it was a decent effort and there could be more to come from her. Weetfromthechaff hails from a yard that do well here so he can go well at a price. However, for the winner we will stick with The Little Fizzer.
