A competitive renewal. FASOL has some solid form in the book this season and he can follow up his Wincanton success on return to a handicap. Moonbow may not be entirely straightforward but he's progressing and looks a serious danger along with unexposed Chanonry Point, who is 2-2 on this course and could have more to offer now handicapping over a longer trip.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: Of those forecasted with a better chance, Moonbow could be most vulnerable in a race in which competition for the lead looks to be fierce: A proliferation of possible pace-forcers could set things up for those coming from further back: Chanonry Point is one who may benefit.
