VERDICT (from our Racing Correspondent Dic Turpin): In a low quality contest between untalented asses many don’t merit consideration. Pretty Pathetic (blinkered), Bad (cheekpieces), Shrivelled Brain (tongue-strapped), Z-lister (wears visor) and Savage (hood fitted) have no form at all and none are likely to appeal to conservative racegoers who loathe horses of colour. Shit ‘Appens is horribly exposed, Key Hunt needs others to falter and Tugging It has too much to prove. The only thing going for Doormat is that nobody has heard of her, while Don’t Trust is an unreliable maiden prone to extreme rightward lurches. Favourite Rich’n’slack is a self-regarding show-pony who will need a severe whipping to overcome his pigmentation handicap. Therefore preference is for off-the-card incumbent Big Liar to pull off a surprise and win again by proroguing the race and declaring it null and void.
