Verdict
HEEZARARITY found the soft ground against him at Sandown last time. But his previous placed efforts on this surface give him every chance today and he can finally open his account. Crossley was well beaten in a handicap here last time but had gone close at Thirsk during the summer. He's preferred to Another Journey, making his debut on the Flat having failed to figure in three starts in bumpers. The newcomer Echologic is a half-brother to multiple course winner John Potts and won't have to be anything special to get involved.
