Verdict

It could pay to stick with PINK LIPS in this modest contest. She's gone close on her last three outings and the handicapper has given her chance by leaving her on the same mark as when third at Nottingham last time. Bethan has posted her best efforts on the Fibresand at Southwell so far but Shirataki showed signs of a revival when third at Bath having won off an 11lb higher mark last season. Booktheband looks best of the remainder though he's yet to win a race.
