Verdict

Prolific winner Little Shilling is back after a break but may have to settle for second best with TWO MILES WEST getting the vote, while Mith Hill is another to add to the shortlist. The selection carries a penalty for his recent course and distance win. He benefited from first time blinkers that day and connections are keen to take advantage of his lenient handicap mark. He has tumbled down the weights over the past twelve months and still looks weighted to win. Little Shilling started his winning spree with a rating of just 77 and went on to score six consecutive times earning himself a rating of 130. He finished mid-division on his final start at the Cheltenham Festival and has since had a break. Trainer Tim Vaughan is having a purple patch of late so he certainly warrants respect on his comeback run. Mith Hill won well at Perth on his penultimate outing and was not discredited after finishing second behind the selection last time out. He is now five pounds higher in the weights and will need to raise his game once again if he is to reverse the placing this time around. Two Miles West is well in on his best form and if at his best will take all the beating.
