Verdict
Hey Ho Let's Go is upped in class and raised 3lb after landing a couple of lower grade sprints here while Kath's Lustre is another facing a tougher task after scoring at Chelmsford. But SAAHEQ has been competing at this level and beat Capla Spirit over track and trip in February. Amanda Perrett’s charge can return to winning ways in this company though the veteran Boom The Groom is not out of this either given he was returning from a lay-off when winning here in December.
