Verdict

REEL BUDDY STAR is given the vote in this feature handicap with both Best Prospect and Nevada Desert worth noting. The selection is only four pounds higher since winning at Ripon last time out and has been in high spirits all season. It was only a matter of time before he achieved his latest success and if recapturing that form he will prove difficult to beat. Best Prospect could not cope with the eight-pound rise when winning at Doncaster back in March. He has only run twice since and has finished nearer last than first on both outings. That said he has been dropped a couple of pounds and coming back from a break he will be fresher than most. Nevada Desert has bits and bobs of form and was a course-and-distance winner back in July. He has run with credit a couple of times since and any support in the market should be noted.
