Verdict

Most of these ran here last time and BAY WATCH (NAP) scored over the course and distance with Storm Melody behind. This is less competitive and, with an apprentice’s allowance negating a 6lb rise, he can go in again. Show Me The Bubbly also faces an easier task than when third here recently and is preferred to Coronation Cottage, a runner-up over track and trip on her latest start. Crime Of Passion also found one too good at the track last week while Nibras Again returned a losing favourite at Musselburgh at the start of the month.
