A big-field handicap with a wide-open feel and with that in mind a chance is taken on C&D winner HENRY BOX BROWN. Below his best when last seen in the spring, he returns with his yard amongst the winners and, operating from his last winning mark, he could represent a spot of value. Moonshine Spirit, Rock On Tommy and Fever Dream head the dangers, whilst Hammer Dan is also worth monitoring in the betting for positive vibes on handicap bow.
