        Verdict

        Leah's Pride, Desert Light and Zazous are the three to concentrate on here and the vote is given to Leah's Pride. The selection ran better than the bare form suggested last time when finishing ninth behind Magic Amour at Wolverhampton. She was leading at the distance but then got squeezed for room and she can be considered a little unlucky. Desert Light rates the main danger as he was a fair fourth behind Orchestration at Southwell last time. He raced alone on the far side that day so it was a good effort and he has to considered. Zazous finished third behind John Robie at Lingfield last time but that was over 7f and with this return to the minimum trip in his favour he is another that should be thereabouts at the finish. Pulse would have claims on the pick of his form but he has been below-par of late and for the winner we return to Leah's Pride.
