Verdict

Competitive fare and it may pay to take a chance on MAWKEB. Having gone close on his first 2 starts upon joining Mick Appleby, he was far from disgraced when fifth over further at Wolverhampton 3 weeks ago and could go well from a career-low mark/in first-time cheekpieces. Stopnsearch is enjoying a good spell, as is Blue Flame, and they head up the dangers.
