Verdict
Up To Trix has shown some ability in both of his outings over the smaller obstacles and would be of interest if the market speaks in his favour off an opening mark of 103. However, MINELLA DOUBLE looks the more solid option after returning to form when second at Huntingdon last May. Provided the eight-year-old is ready to go, he could be the one to beat. Harry Bright is another to consider.
Expert View Verdict
HARRY BRIGHT has been in good form since going handicapping and should be able to shed his maiden tag here. He was just outstayed over 3m2f last time but his previous runner up effort has been franked emphatically so he looks on a good mark. Times A Wastin has proven unreliable in his short career but he posted his best effort so far on his penultimate start and a repeat of that would see him go close. Top weight Up To Trix quickly goes handicapping after a promising placed effort last time where he finished ahead of a next time out winner so he should also pose a threat.
