Verdict

Arumun held off GINGER'S LAD at Southwell earlier this month but the runner-up enjoys a 3lb turnaround in the weights here which should be enough to turn the tables. Mick Easterby's charge gets the nod as Whatshallwedo has been fighting the handicapper since beating Strathaird at Bangor in December. The latter beat Ice Image over C&D in March but was tailed off on his latest start here and doesn't look wholly reliable. Frith has a modest strike-rate and hasn't been seen since November but may still be the pick of the remainder.
