Verdict

RAPTURE'S DELIGHT won despite finding the drop to seven furlongs against him last time, and he looks to have been given a chance by the handicapper, so gets the nod over another handicap debutant in the shape of Bucky Larson. Dream of Words carries a penalty for winning at Roscommon on Tuesday, and can't be ignored as she bids to make it three wins from her last starts.
  1. Rapture's Delight
  2. Bucky Larson
  3. Dream Of Words
