Verdict
Amazing Day gets the vote here and the betting might guide you as to the chances of the others. Amazing Day won a similar event at Ripon on May 20th and, under the same rider today, looks set to make them all go in what is a modest opening to proceedings. Caught In Paradise, who was debuting there, has more than ten lengths to find on that form and is only six pounds better off. You could not entirely rule out Lavemill or Tanley, and Little Finch now drops to this level after showing a modicum of promise in three runs. Finally, Pearo was cheaply acquired but his stable can certainly get them ready first time up and, hey, this is after all a seller. For the selection, though, we will stick with Amazing Day.
