Verdict

Winning hurdler CITY DREAMER was runner-up on the Flat at Lingfield in February. He drops down a grade for this and can go one better. Rock'n Gold won over today’s trip at Wolverhampton and is 5lb higher while Marshall Aid was still beaten a long way when second over track and trip a week ago. Intermodal was expected to do better at Lingfield earlier in the week and the less exposed Kerre is preferred having finished well in front of Clayton Hall at Wolverhampton on her handicap debut.
