Verdict

Pennies And Pounds won this in 2015 when 4lb higher so a market move would be significant, though recent form has left much to be desired. Without Frontier’s second at Wetherby was a rare promising effort but he’s only a pound higher so will probably start favourite. Midnight Walk makes his handicap debut on a modest mark but the promise of that point-to-point win in October seems a long time ago now. WALTER ONEEIGHTONE has not exactly set the world alight so far but is surely better than his form suggests given he’s a half-brother to the more-than-useful Sea Light.
