Verdict

Abalvino, Happy Hussar and Just Muckin Around are the three to concentrate on in this handicap chase and the vote is given to Abalvino. The selection was having his try at this trip when a good second over course and distance behind Banker Account. That was a really good effort and now that he has proved he stays this far he should take plenty of beating with conditions in his favour. Happy Hussar rates the main danger as he narrowly beat Kittencat at Exeter last time over a much longer trip than this. He has the class to go well in this company but his best form is over further and on that basis he looks worth taking on. Just Muckin Around put up a good effort after almost a year off the track when a good second behind Saucy Night at Fontwell last time. He will have conditions to suit here and if there is any market support for him then it could pay to take the hint. King On The Run is from a leading yard and is another to consider but for the winner we return to Abalvino.
