      Verdict

      Mustadaam failed to land the odds over 1m4f at Leicester but can go close back over this shorter trip. Solidarity also came up short at Leicester last time while Cricklewood Green failed to convince when stepped up to 1m2f at Sandown albeit in better company than this. Three Peaks looks stuck on his current mark so it could pay to stick with WEE FRANKIE. He beat a subsequent winner on his racecourse debut at Hamilton and that look strong enough form to see him go close again with Cam Hardie taking 5lb off his back.
