Verdict

GOLD POCKET (9) is a promising type still in first campaign but off to a great start to career. Has won three on end now, the latest scoring over 7f at this track. Races well here and rates a top chance again. STRAWBERRY QUEEN (8) raced just off the lead before letting down nicely and scoring a 0.8 lengths win over this journey at this track last time. In fine form and worth following up. RUNNERS HIGH (1) returned from a spell five-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 3 lengths into fourth over 6f at this track. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SHINING ONE (3) proved too strong two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when fifth over 7f at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Well placed and can make amends.
