Verdict
INGLEBY STAR is in good form and he can win again at the main expense of Wicked Wilma and Distant Vision. The cheekpieces seem to have had a positive effect on this four-year-old and he won well over this course and distance last week when he beat Toy Top and he may be up to defying a penalty. Wicked Wilma wasn't beaten far at York on Friday when she finished third behind Highland Warrior. The draw could have been kinder but she is clearly in good heart and she could be capable of getting into the money again. Distant Vision chased home Top Bid at Haydock last time but she has had plenty of chances and she has now gone 28 races without getting her head in front. Fire Up The Band would have claims on the pick of his form but he seems to have lost the plot of late and we will stick with Ingleby Star as the pick.
