Verdict

Mulligan's Man is the pick on past form but has become very disappointing and was odds-on when well beaten at Worcester earlier this month. Debt To Society was beaten at Southwell after scoring at Uttoxeter but must have some sort of chance and Tinctoria could figure dropping into this grade for the first time, despite an absence. BYRON BLUE gained a deserved victory at Worcester last time and may be improving. He has more to do here under a penalty but could be up to the task.
