Verdict

Capla Gilda has won a nursery at Ffos Las and a seller at Catterick while Call Him Al made all over this trip at Musselburgh and might take some catching again if grabbing the lead from stall two. But a few of these have the scope to do better now handicapping including CRACKING SPEED, who has been improving with experience and seems certain to relish this extra furlong. So Hi Class is another likely to take step forward on efforts to date while Valentino Sunrise was placed off this mark last time at Kempton, though was the first time he’d made the frame in six attempts.
