Verdict

TAMARIN will likely prove popular now handicapping for the time having finished third here last month. The Stoute filly is preferred to Little Belter, a well beaten favourite at Ripon last time. Charlie's Star has tumbled 15lb down the weights since July and finished closer at Kempton last time but both Zebelini and Mutafarrej have gone backwards of late. Shamrock Sheila has done her winning in plating races so far and may struggle again.
