Verdict

In this class 6 handicap we look to STRAIGHT FACE, who should be closest challenged by course and distance winner Mister Benji and distance winner Aggbag. Straight Face came in second at Kempton last time out, running well, and deserves to go one better here. The five-year-old completed a hat-trick over seven furlongs last spring and is running 2lbs lower than his last winning mark. Mister Benji is without a win in two years but is often there or thereabouts. The veteran has been putting in better efforts as of late and looks to be worth a look, although he has proved to be unpredictable. Five-year-old gelding Aggbag sets good early pace, but can prove vulnerable to fast finisher. As for the rest, Aquarian Dancer stands out from the bunch, but none really look like showing at this level.
