Verdict

This mares contest doesn't make masses of appeal for punting purposes, but southern raiders Cascaye and Sapphire Noire offer potential for improvement now switched to handicapping. However, in seeking a selection, it pays to focus upon facts from the form book rather than speculation. Same Circus has a welter burden to carry even allowing for Lorcan Murtagh's 5lb claim, but she kept much stronger company than this in novice events after landing the odds at Catterick in February, and she comes here both stamina and ground proven and is very much respected. However, the vote just goes to the infrequent winner MISS MASH. The form of her penultimate start at Worcester has been franked by a couple of subsequent winners, and the hope is that the returning Richard Johnson can force her head to the front for just the second time in a soon to be 16 race career.
  1. Miss Mash
  2. Same Circus
  3. Cascaye
