Verdict

Underwritten edges it at the weights but has been well beaten since dropping down to this level. Spiekeroog never figured in handicap company last time and his only win on the Flat came at this track in 2009. Course specialist Eijaaz is still capable in this grade on his day and Summerlea has gone close over track and trip before but that was back in 2011. Given the shortcomings of the opposition, MUNRO BAGGER gets the vote by default as he's open to improvement stepping up in distance after a fourth over 1m2f at Ripon three weeks ago.
