Once again, this looks pretty competitive, with Goodenough Mover getting the call ahead of Primo Way, Blue Patrick and Bee Minor. Well, Indian Trail looked good when winning twice last summer but has something to prove now off topweight here. Marker, who has yet to win a handicap, looks held from his current mark, while Goodenough Mover came home in good style at Chepstow last time and, despite being raised seven pounds in the weights for that effort, can still go well with the talented Hayley Turner taking five pounds off his back. Blue Patrick, who is now dropping in the weights, might improve for the step up to seven furlongs, while Primo Way has been dropped a generous seven pounds for his Doncaster third last time, is only lightly raced and could well have better to come. Handsome Cross and Compton's Eleven are ones to keep an eye on from lower in the weights, while Bee Minor, a fair second to Catherine Wheel over six furlongs at the last meeting here, is also back to a mark from which she must surely be capable of winning. It's another tricky handicap on a far-from-straightforward card, with the vote, once again, going to Goodenough Mover.
