Verdict
Rambling Light, Suzi Spends and Marajaa are the three against the field here with SUZI SPENDS taken to make a winning return. Rambling Light won at Windsor last June, but has been winless since, though he has slipped down the handicap as a consequence. A good second last time suggests he is returning to a winning mark, and with the stable firing in a treble on Saturday he is respected. Marajaa won at Kempton in April, and will be a popular choice after a fine effort in defeat in an Ascot handicap. He looks a little high in the handicap however. Suzi Spends has not been out since November but she won two of her last three starts, and is only 3lbs higher than her last success. The yard had a winner on Monday and Suzi Spends can justify an investment.
