A typical early-season handicap with a mixture of horses fit from a winter campaign and those making seasonal reappearances. Nothing makes strong appeal, especially with Richard Fahey choosing to produce a quartet of entrants for the contest, Three of the four have no fitness issues with Right Action especially interesting with the champion jockey a rare booking for the yard. Know Your Limit ran a host of solid races last season and would be one to note if ready to roll while Feathery and Heaven's Guest are just a couple of others among any number of possibles. The vote goes to TWIN APPEAL as he's had a couple of spins over the winter, is very much at home in large fields and Ben Robinson takes a very useful 5lb off this course and distance winner over his optimum trip. Feathery has been going well in maidens and could be the pick of the remainder.
