5.20 – Islesman 1pt win 6/1
Islesman has been a very disappointing sort over the past 12
months, but there is no doubting that he is well enough handicapped to win
this, if bouncing back to form after an 89 day break.
His last victory was in a course and distance handicap last
June, off a mark of 78. He is now down
to 72, and the booking of Richard Hughes would imply that he is thought to be
fit enough to go close.

5.50 – Shamir 1pt win 7/1
Shamir is another horse who is below his last winning mark,
and again he has plenty of course form.
Unlike Islesman though, he actually shaped quite well in a class 2
handicap last time.
Today he is back down to a class 4, where he has won 3 out
of his 4 course and distance handicaps in this grade. Again he is the best handicapped horse in the
race if returning to the level of form that he was showing just over 12 months
ago.
