Verdict

Waverley Star just held on at Musselburgh on Saturday but this looks a stiff task for a three-year-old under a 6lb penalty with his rider claiming 2lb less. BRIDGETOWN was caught close home in a 6f Doncaster maiden last summer and was a beaten odds-on favourite at Southwell in December. He's been dropped 5lb in the ratings and can finally get off the mark. Dirchill scored over this trip at Wolverhampton then led for a long way when tackling 6f at Southwell so should give a good account while Country Charm had Lucky Beggar behind at Catterick last week before failing to obtain a clear run at Wolverhampton on Monday.
