Verdict

A fiercely-competitive handicap as it should be for the money on offer. WILTSHIRE has shown he retains plenty of ability since returning to action this winter and is attractively handicapped in a refitted tongue strap on his past exploits, including at this venue, so he could be the way to go. Lakers seems sure to benefit from this bigger field/stronger pace scenario and is undoubtedly interesting, with hat-trick seeker Sir Les Patterson, Sarab Star and Pocklington a trio of others to note.
