        In depth

        Verdict

        Mango Music is the form horse here and she can complete the hat-trick; Sweet Pickle and Obe Gold head the list of dangers. The selection is unpenalised for her most recent success when she won an apprentice handicap at Newmarket and we see no reason to oppose her. Sweet Pickle will be suited by this slight drop in trip and she has plenty to recommend her here, and she has gone close on her last two starts. Obe Gold won well last time but a 6lbs penalty for that success may just find him out today. Came Back disappointed on the turf at Doncaster last time, but prior to that he had been in sensational form on the all-weather so he merits plenty of respect. Mango Music is on a roll though and he can win again.
