    Verdict

    WILD FLOWER won off a higher mark at Chepstow last year. She finished third here last month and was only beaten a length by the in-form Breezyandbright at Brighton last week. David Probert keeps the partnership intact and Adrian Wintle’s veteran mare is preferred to stable Creek Harbour and Windsor winner Flip Mode, who was a beaten favourite at Lingfield subsequently and is 3lb higher today. Chepstow winner Atty's Edge is interesting, however, having found 7f too far at Newbury while Handytalk is the only one of these to have won at the track previously.
