Verdict

An ordinary race at best with only a handful making any serious appeal, MACARONE getting the nod to complete the hat-trick having been value for extra for his recent narrow Bath success. Sub Thirteen looks the obvious threat on paper, while Blue Point Express turned in her best effort of the season at Chepstow last time so she should be on the premises with a repeat.

3	Fourteen runs since his last win but he arrives in good nick, third of 17 at Bath (5.7f, good to soft) a fortnight ago. Remains on a career-low mark but will probably find a few too good. 2nd Pick 3 Sub Thirteen Jockey: Callum Hutchinson Trainer: Jeremy Scott J: Callum Hutchinson T: Jeremy Scott	96	-	-	-	36%

7	Turned in best effort of the season after 9 weeks off when third of 11 at Chepstow (7f, soft) last month, the form best taken at face value for the time being even if she went it alone towards the far side. Needs to prove that wasn't a false dawn. 3rd Pick 7 Blue Point Express (Ire) Jockey: Finley Marsh Trainer: Adrian Wintle J: Finley Marsh T: Adrian Wintle	96	-	-	-	19%
