Some good C&D form is brought back into this contest, including from Corked, who impressed in a similar handicap last time but has a hefty hike from the handicapper to contend with. Similarly, Red Derek and Makthecat both placed at the Lancashire venue last month and set a solid form standard for this contest. However, preference is for AEGUS to make a winning start for his new yard. His final run for his previous handler suggested that more is to come from him, and certainly fits the type of handicapper his new trainer tends to excel with.
