Verdict

This contest will take little winning, but there are few in this that look good enough to even win a race as poor as this. Timely Gift has actually managed to cross the line in front recently, but that was a slowly run race at Ffos Las when he was outsider of five and the form may be misleading. Whiskey John was third over C&D and burst blood vessels next time. The booking of Jamie Bargary is positive and he should be in the shake up if remaining sound. LADY LONGSHOT'S best performances have come over this trip and she would have found 2m too sharp at Wincanton last time. The stiff track here may compensate for a lack of pace and she has each-way claims. Oh Dear Oh Dear ran better than her final position suggests last time and is another to consider despite being 6lb out of the weights.
  1. Lady Longshot
  2. Whiskey John
  3. Oh Dear Oh Dear
