Verdict

This is a competitive handicap to open the card and the vote is given to What Do You Know who is preferred to Kew The Music and Takeitwo. Kew The Music is an obvious threat to our selection in this race as he certainly has the ability to win this race and he has been in good form. However, he quite often misses the break in his races and he will find life tough if he does that again today from stall 6. He will be flying at the finish but he may have to once again settle for a place. We will therefore stick with What Do You Know who is a model of consistency and he was only narrowly beaten by Takeitwo at Kempton last time. He has a slight pull in the weights with that rival today and he can reverse the placings. Takeitwo has to be again granted consideration as he is in cracking form and he does have a fair draw so the chances are he will try and make it difficult for our selection to get an easy uncontested lead. Burnley Al would have claims on his best form but he has a wide draw today and is best watched and we will stick with What Do You Know who can gain his revenge on Takeitwo.
