A wide-open handicap but Seven For A Pound is potentially well treated so is worth a market check. Aqua Libre could go well if in the mood but Freedom And Wheat makes more appeal. SEAFORTH and Final Attack are in the veteran stage now but both are previous course and distance winners entitled to respect in this lowly grade with Adrian Wintle’s eight-year-old getting the nod. Mr Strutter has a good strike-rate on Turf but is 1-26 on the all-weather. Amor Fati and Lawyersgunsn'money look the pick of the remainder.
