Verdict

BRIDGE OF SIGHS arrives in the best form having recorded his second victory over track and trip. A 3lb rise is negated by Natalie Hambling's allowance and he can confirm latest running with Jonnie Skull. Scot Daddy has slipped down the weights though never threatened off today's mark at Lingfield last time while Caltra Colleen is another on the slide, though both wins to date have come on the Turf. Hierarch is best over 7f nowadays while Schottische has won just the once since 2013 and that was on the Fibresand at Southwell.
