Verdict

DON CRUNCH (2) went to the front in the early stages and kept going to record a emphatic 6 metre win last start over 1 ¹/16m at this track, following on from a strong second the run prior at Melton. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meeting a deeper field this time but he good enough to play a major role. SHES POPPY (1) scored at this circuit two runs ago before having her colours lowered when second at her latest appearance over 1 5/16m here, beaten 2.5 metres. Must raise the bar but she has the ability to test this field. LETSGO BIG GIRL (11) found form and finished in the money two runs back then was brave in defeat to finish third despite breaking last start over 1 5/16m at this course. Top-three conveyance. GOOD BOOTS BINDI (3) has drawn to advantage and should give backers a great sight.
