Verdict

NIGHT BEAR rates just the pick of the weights with the form of his recent C&D fourth having been well advertised so gets the vote from in-form maiden Alfred Spero. Silkies Sib, Broadstone and Mrs Meader all need factoring into this open handicap too.

  1. NIGHT BEAR
  2. ALFRED SPERO
  3. SILKIES SIB (IRE)
