5:05am - SCHWEPPES HANDICAP | 1100m | | i

A surprisingly high quality race for a BM 85 in the winter, there are plenty of talented horses resuming here. Pace from BADAJOZ and FICKLE FOLLY (FAIR to STEADY) and you can expect a good run from both of those one-pacers again, both suited to the conditions and hard to toss. SECRET TRAIL an each-way chance third-up (if inside ground is OK). Fresh horses PIONEERING, SIR PLUSH (prefers dry?) and MAGIC ALIBI all more than capable at their best. Wide open despite the scratchings, check the market and betting moves. [updated 9:04am]
