        Verdict

        Essgee Nics was winning handicaps here last summer and has every chance while Born To Sire was beaten less than a length at Chelmsford still looking for his first win. Quoteline Direct will be sharper for a recent outing at Newcastle but LITTLE HERCULES has the most scope for improvement having posted his best effort so far at Lingfield on his handicap debut and gets the vote in this lowly grade.
