Verdict
Aboriginie may fare better now returned to quick ground, however this looks to lie between Charlevoix and Amicable Terms, and it is Charlevoix who gets the nomination. Nicely plotted up to win his handicap debut on quick ground over a mile at Redcar recently, Chris Wall's filly can go on from here. She has a 9lb rise in the weights to contend with today but that may not be enough to stop her with the extra furlong unlikely to be a problem. Amicable Terms comes here chasing the hat-trick and Rae Guest's filly is interesting here despite a penalty; however she stays so well that this trip on a flat track may test her more today. Minjim could improve on her handicap debut, whilst Ramprakash is surely better than we saw last time out. Mr Fantozzi is possibly just lacking at this level, whilst the same applies to Blandys Wood. Charlevoix won well last time and can do so again.
