Verdict
Kaddys Dream was fourth over a longer trip here last month and should be approaching peak fitness now. Handy Hollow was placed in his first two starts over timber but disappointed when last seen at Sedgefield in November. ARGYLE had shown promise prior to getting off the mark at Plumpton 10 days ago. The grey has a penalty to shoulder here and William Clarke’s claim has been reduced but he should have gained confidence from that victory and may have more to offer. Marmont is now 0-10 but did finish ahead of the selection at Fontwell in December so can’t be ignored.
