Accomplice is unexposed but has plenty to prove having a first run in a handicap after an 18-month absence. The handicapper took a dim view of Carys' Commodity’s demolition job at Fakenham and raised him 12lb. He is improving but steps up a grade for this. Dhowin’s stable remains out of sorts but Capone can’t be ignored and Hygrove Percy is slipping down the ratings, though seems best on sharper tracks. BUCKHORN GEORGE won his maiden here in March and went close to following up in a handicap at Plumpton at the start of the month. He is only a pound higher in this and looks the one to beat.
