    Verdict

    Safira Menina has had just three runs on Polytrack, including here, and failed to sparkle though this is a tight-looking handicap. MY MO has been forcing the pace over shorter and not having the pace for a finishing burst. He steps up to a mile for the first time but, if ridden with more restraint, can gain his first success. Hold Firm produced a shock when landing a handicap at Wolverhampton last month but wouldn't be certain to repeat the process while Luv U let supporters down when well backed at Southwell earlier this month.
