Verdict
Firenze Rosa, a winner over the slightly shorter trip on good to soft here last week, carries a penalty if turning up though was engaged in the 1.40 at Bath yesterday. Wild Flower scored over 7f at Chelmsford last month and is only 2lb higher but was due to run in the 4.40 at Kempton yesterday. Mister Freeze has only won at Southwell and his last two placed efforts have been there while Knockout Blow's victory here came in a seller and he's run poorly in handicaps subsequently. BAHAMIAN SUNRISE last won at Epsom in the summer of last year but has run in better company and has dropped just enough to get into this 0-55 handicap so gets the nod to end his long losing run.
