A tricky looking sprint handicap with plenty of these being inconsistent, out of form, or both. Sir Ottoman should be given another chance after his run at Brighton was practically a non-event after he suffered trouble in running. He had previously been in fabulous form on the AW, and should be very competitive if staying clear of trouble. Mutafarrid is lightly raced in comparison to a few of these and the change in grade/trip could see him produce a much improved effort. A tentative vote is given to SHORTBACKANDSIDES though, who improved on his first start of the season when not disgraced recently and a similar slice of improvement could see him go close.
