    In depth

    Verdict

    Another headache here for punters with a wide open handicap to work out and many would have chances on their best form but the main protagonists appear to be Only Penang, Thesaurus and we will take a chance on Thesaurus. The gelding from the bang in form Ian Wood yard won well when defeating Lucky Archer and with conditions again in his favour he will be hard to beat. Only Penang rates the main danger on her latest third behind In A silent Way however she gave the impression she was in the handicappers grip and for that reason she is opposed on this occasion. Voice Mail is another in fine form and his latest second behind Pas D' Surprise last time out under similar conditions gives him definite place claims. Of the remainder Mutabassir is a course winner from a yard in form and is worth a cautionary look in the market.
