Verdict
Rocking Ends has been in the mix over 6f on the all-weather but Safari Dream completed a hat-trick over today’s minimum trip last season. Sera Dawn has notched a double since beaten by Umming N' Ahing at Nottingham and the latter went in again at the same track a fortnight ago. The maiden winner SIMPLE MAN makes his handicap debut having found life tough in a Listed sprint last time and he gets the nod with Henry Candy’s yard among the winners lately.
