Verdict

Ivestar had Perfect Honour behind when winning an amateurs' race at Catterick last time but the latter may well reverse running here as she had scored over C&D before that. Mitie Mouse has yet to show any benefit for her slide down the weights and Illustrious Lad will find life tougher back in a handicap having finally got off the mark in a maiden over C&D last month. Multiple Polytrack winner RIGHTCAR hasn't won since January but is now back on a winning mark and it showed when he finished a lot closer at Wolverhampton last time. He gets the vote in similar company today.
