An open handicap which can go the way of LETSBE AVENUE, who enhanced his good start for this yard when second off this mark at Leicester Across The Line hinted at a revival over a trip too far at Taunton 2 weeks ago and is feared most off his reduced mark.

RACE STATS RACE SUMMARY

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): A Honeyball (31 wins from 94 runners, 33%) runs DOCTOR FOLEY TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): B Pauling (7 wins from 29 runners, 24%) runs SOUND AND FURY LONGEST TRAVELLER: SOUND AND FURY trained by B Pauling, Naunton, 150 miles.

DONNIE AZOFF lost out only close home when runner-up at Stratford in July and his run at Worcester next time can be excused (bad mistake 4 out) so he is taken to get off the mark this time around. He can get the better of Irish point winner Sound And Fury who can make his presence felt on Rules debut Mr Hailstone is the pick of the rest

RACE SUMMARY

AUBA ME YANG proved a different proposition when ridden by this conditional to score on his handicap bow last time and is expected to improve further to defy a 10lb rise in the weights Fellow last-time-out winner Sami Bear is also much respected, whilst Sambezi is another who shouldn’t be dismissed after his good second here last month.
