Summer Mini Break At westernhousehotel Handicap
1m 2f
Going: Good to Firm (Good in places)
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneNoble Crusade warrants plenty of attention as he won his maiden well at Carlisle and was far from disgraced when third under a penalty at Redcar last time. A mark of 78 might underestimate him on his handicap bow and he's a danger to all if it does, but it might be worth siding with the proven handicap form of STATE OF BLISS. A solid third off today's mark over a mile at Leicester last time, Mark Johnston's charge could be better for this step up in trip. Ayr Poet is consistent enough to have his say, while Sandret has acquitted himself well enough in two handicaps over this distance recently.
