(2m, Class 5, soft with heavy in places)This is a seven-runner handicap that looks simple on paper and messy in practice.

(2m4f, Soft; heavy in places)Four runners. One key question: who gets control in a tactical crawl?Timeform has the pace forecast as Very Weak and with only four declared that’s the whole race in a sentence.

Timeform have the pace down as weak and they also flag that prominent racers are usually favoured here. In other words: expect a steady-to-stop–start gallop, and don’t expect the winner to come from last unless the leaders…
