Verdict

SHAULA (3) will find this a touch easier as he comes back to a CL2 today following a 2L defeat at Ascot. Back to country level this time is a big tick and he maps to sit handy with Fiore hopping back on board. This looks ideal for him back to the mile and he can make a statement. RIVERCREST MAGIC (6) is third-up today following a 1.5L defeat at York last time out. Dyson remains in the saddle and she is a third-up winner in the past. Likely to be back in the run but she's been strong from the back late, and she can return to winning ways. GINGERS SISTER (11) flew home over the 7 ½f at this track last time out and she may be able to sit a touch closer this time around. She remains down in the weights today and if she can run up to form, she'll take beating. WINNING SHUFFLE (4) draws the inside today and gets Faithfull in the saddle now. Won't be far away. GREAT DEAL (2) is better than he showed last start but did pull up with an issue. Can bounce back today.
