Verdict

FIFTY NIFTY shaped better than the bare result on his second start for Mick Appleby latest and looks ready to capitalise on a much-reduced mark. Buccabay is another that has become attractively handicapped and did well under the circumstances to make the frame at Southwell last time, so makes the shortlist, with course-specialist Carbine Harvester and in-form Valley ofthe Kings also shortlisted.

7	Not long with this yard and shaped well when sixth of 11 in handicap (9/2) at Newcastle (7.1f) 15 days ago, doing too much too soon. Makes polytrack debut. Cheekpieces back on. On a very handy mark and has to be taken seriously back at 6f. 1st Pick 7 Fifty Nifty (Ire) Jockey: Hector Crouch Trainer: Michael Appleby J: Hector Crouch T: Michael Appleby	100	-	-	-	12%	8/1
