Verdict

Today could be the day to catch TOMMY THE RASCAL, who has run to decent races in defeat just lately and showed at Catterick last time that this could be his trip. Keep an eye on the market where Ashford Wood and Cleve Cottage are concerned, while Celtic Tune should be in the shake-up for the frame. 1. Tommy The Rascal 2. Celtic Tune 3. Ashford Wood
