Verdict
French Leave has never won from a mark in the 90's and so we will plump for the well-handicapped RADMORES REVENGE. Trained by John O 'Shea, the selection has won at the track before, has no issues with the ground and looks worth chancing at a big price. Prince Massini won well on his return at Uttoxeter and is respected as he tackles softer ground despite an 11lb rise in the weights, and along with Cockney Prince, well-fancied at Uttoxeter when last seen, and Lightening Fire, a runaway Uttoxeter winner in January, is one to heed in the betting. Delcombe still looks on a fair mark and he looks the best of the rest.
