Verdict

Tidal's Baby has been knocking on the door on Polytrack since joining Tony Carroll and Welsh Inlet usually goes well here. Scott Dixon’s pair Misu Moneypenny and Dr Red Eye are well treated on their best form but both are hard to catch right. The Special One went close at Chelmsford in March but that remains the only time she’s managed to reach the frame. GYPSY RIDER runs his best races here and it may be worth taking a chance on Henry Tett’s eight-year-old given he wasn’t beaten far last time when easy to back and is on a winning mark.
