    Verdict

    Wiff Waff landed a double at Newcastle with last week’s success and carries 6lb extra. Sir Hector is also penalised for scoring at Lingfield a week ago and NAMPARA is preferred. The latter went close at Wolverhampton when handicapping for the first time and Paul D’Arcy’s filly drops down a grade for this. Becker also drops in class but his recent placed effort came over 6f and Pranceabootthetoon won a maiden race over the same trip.
