Verdict

It could be worth chancing PETITE RHAPSODY, who again caught the eye back from a break at Newcastle 17 days ago and represents an in-form yard. Hold Onto The Line showed improved form when making a winning start to life in handicaps over C&D last month so looks the obvious threat, while Balranald shaped better than the bare result back over hurdles at Sedgefield 6 weeks ago.
