Verdict

Its A Sheila Thing and Bizet have something to find on official ratings which suggests this ought to be a straight fight between the top two in the weights. However, there are question marks about both, although Port Paradise is significantly superior on official ratings. His third to Petite Jack here last October on the artificial surface is by far the best form on show in the past 12 months but since then he's pulled up twice when tried over hurdles and was a poor last of eight in a Wolverhampton seller when last seen in March. Put simply, it's hard to know what to make of him at present so HANNINGTON is just the preference. He was way below par last time but previous performances were consistent in low grade handicaps and he might just prove the more reliable.
