Verdict

BAASEM is unproven on the ground, but the fact that he runs here suggests it's not a concern, and he is taken to follow up an impressive win at Lingfield. Handicap debutant Skerryvore has been given every chance by the assessor, and should improve further, so looks a big threat while the hat-trick seeking Langholm is really thriving, and can't be rules out for all the return to this trip is not certain to suit.
