Verdict

Another hurdle race which lacks any strength in depth, with the obvious eye-catcher being the dual Polytrack Flat scorer Willyegolassiego. She's probably on a fair mark over hurdles and ran well at Fontwell recently, but at the likely forecast odds, a narrow preference is for MIDNIGHT GYPSY. She appears to have been handled sparingly for a summer campaign, with a drying surface likely to suit her down to the ground. With the benefit of a Stratford reappearance under her belt, she promises to be a great deal sharper this afternoon.
