Verdict

Sandra's Secret has an ideal draw under the stands rail as she bids to follow up a recent success that proved she stayed this trip at Lingfield last time. This stiffer track and stronger opposition set her a different task but she is clearly progressing and a good claimer helps to offset the effects of a 6lb rise in the weights. Southern Belle is back down in the weights and running over her best trip whilst the Whittaker pair of Tumblewind and Love Island can both have cases made for them. The former ran well at York in midweek after a lengthy absence whilst Love Island is a course specialist who goes well fresh. HONEYSUCKLE LIL also runs this track well and has dropped to her last winning mark. Her trainer likes to have a decent crack at this race and has enjoyed success twice in the last eight years. This mare needs a couple of races to come to hand and this could be an ideal opportunity to catch her.
  1. Honeysuckle Lil
  2. Southern Belle
  3. Sandra's Secret
