Verdict

Hardly a contest that sets the pulse racing but there has to be a winner and that may well come in the shape of GRAND COUREUR who at least showed he could win a race at Bangor. He then showed that he could hold his form by coming second last time (bumped into an improver from an in-form yard), a repeat of that performance may well be good enough in this lowly grade. Babytaggle just needs some good fortune to open his account having knocked on the door when last seen; he may just need the run after the break though. Most of the others are hard to make a sound case for although Jimmyjames and Nautical Twilight may benefit from a change of scenery making their stable debuts.
