The unexposed MR RAINBOW is hard to oppose after a nice win at Warwick last time with Street Power very interesting racing of his last winning mark while Mr Hichins looks booked to give his running again in an intriguing handicap. After winning on debut over course and distance the selection put in an improved effort to find just the one too good in a Salisbury Handicap. He looked in need of his return run at Redcar and duly stepped up on that to comfortably score last time. He looks fairly treated with just 3lbs extra to carry especially with more improvement likely. Jeremy Gask's Street Power won a Kempton Handicap off this mark three starts ago and after being outclassed in a top race bounced back to form last time out. He acts on this surface so looks a leading player. Mr Hichens has only lost once at this track in three starts and is clearly running well while Flowing Cape is a course and distance winner who found just one the better when 6lbs better off last time so might just be in the grip of the assessor. Prime Exhibit is from a yard in form and is under a competitive handicap weight but Mr Rainbow has scope for plenty more.
