Verdict

A tight-knit handicap in which marginal preference is for Michael Herrington's new recruit ANTHROPOLOGIST who is fancied to build on an encouraging Wolverhampton run and bag a second success at the track. C&D winner Novak heads the list of dangers from a reduced mark, although Wednesday's Newcastle winner Sea Legend, Bobby Joe Leg and Lerwick all need factoring in too.

  1. ANTHROPOLOGIST
  2. NOVAK
  3. SEA LEGEND (FR)
