A couple of handicap newcomers make this an interesting heat, with THANK YOU MA'AM perhaps most appealing going back up in trip after a trio of very solid runs in novice company. Fourofakind made fairly heavy weather of things when runner-up at Wincanton last month but remains low mileage for a fine yard, whilst Fresh Speculation is another who looks intriguing stepped up in trip for his handicap bow.
