This isn't a bad race for a Class 5 Handicap, and they should go a fair pace. With that in mind it could pay to back something that has form over 7f as opposed to a natural sprinter, and LORD CLENAGHCASTLE fits the bill. A C&D winner, he didn't see out a mile here when disappointing in November, and is worth another chance from the lowest draw. Marzouq looks progressive and could be a big danger if the extra furlong suits, while it was a much better performance from Tai Hang Dragon last time out. 1. Lord Clenaghcastle 2. Marzouq 3.
