Verdict

Courtesy Call looked promising before a long injury absence so could be interesting if attracting market support. Iniciar sports blinkers on his first start since May and No Win No Fee also has the blinds on the first time having struggled off higher marks since winning at Stratford in July. Ginger Fizz only won by a nose here last month and is 5lb higher so this is best left to ALYASAN, who only won a seller in July but produced a much better effort behind an in-form rival at Stratford last month.
