Verdict

Bridal Suite was having only his sixth start when favourite at Ffos Las a month ago but had no answer to Try It Sometime and is tackling a much longer trip. FLUGZEUG has been racing consistently in this sort of grade over hurdles and fences and stepped up slightly in class to produce a fair run at Plumpton last week. He's only moderate but on a fair mark and can gain the second victory of his career. Thornton Alice won a slightly higher grade event at Southwell from a higher mark than this though that was almost two years ago. She'll be favoured by the ground and her regular rider's claim can see her in the frame. Onwiththeparty hasn't shown much since arriving from Ireland and probably needs a further drop in the ratings.
