Verdict
A difficult apprentice handicap to end the card and we will take a chance with Rydal, Cerulean Rose and Calabaza could be the main dangers. Jamie Osborne's runner has put in two decent efforts so far this season, finishing runner up on both occasions. He was only just touched off by the rejuvenated Connect last time and can go one better this afternoon. Cerulean Rose managed to get her head in front last time when beating Digital in a tight finish at Chepstow. The runner up ran well next time out so the form does look pretty solid. Calabaza is from the in form John Akehurst yard and showed improved form last time to chase home today's rival Dancing Mystery and there could be more to come. Malapropism has found a new lease of life and looks the pick of the others, but we expect top apprentice William Buick to land yet another prize, with Rydal.
