Verdict

Longsider showed promise when fourth at Lingfield on his debut with Superior Moment unseating at the start in the same race. But the former subsequently missed an engagement here on Monday and NICKS NOT WONDER is preferred. Jamie Osborne’s colt posted an improved effort when runner-up at Newcastle last time and should be in the mix once again in this company. Glorious Return is another going the right way and may finish closer today but Shevchenko Park disappointed at Haydock when last in action back in August. Swell Swilly is related to several winners in Scandinavia and a newcomer to note.
