Formscan  - Bobby Joe Leg and Novak are past C&D winners to consider in division two of this handicap and, at the forecast prices, they both make some each-way appeal. However, for win purposes LERWICK is put forward as the one to be on. He has been running well without winning at Kempton of late and a repeat of his penultimate effort puts him firmly in the mix.
