Verdict

Cloudland gets the vote in this beginers chase with Forager and Common Girl rating the main dangers, The selection won well last time out and although this looks more competitive at least he is progressing and under conditions that suit he is taken to win again. Forager has the highest bhb rating but has shown very little of late so can not be put forward with any confidence. Common Girl's best runs have been when fresh so she could go well at a price. Of the remainder Ice Crystal is from a yard in form and is another with place claims but for the winner we return to the progressive Cloudland.
