Verdict

This is not an easy race to find individuals who are anything to enthuse over. A number of these could improve for new trips, new trainers or for making their handicap debuts. Of those treated favourably by the draw Topmeup looks set to go close once again and Tis Wonderful represents a top yard who are going well. WHATALOVE wears a hood for the first time and that may help her settle. She has been keen and has not quite got home in recent outings. Her second to Sir Plato looks the best piece of form on offer and her young rider has caught the eye of leading trainers.
