    Verdict

    Bumper winner My Little Cracker never looked like winning despite finishing second at Ayr last time a long way behind Danielle's Journey. In fact, FLEMENSFIRTHLEADER (NAP) finished closer when failing to land the odds at Catterick last week having won at Sedgefield before that. She gets another chance on the strength of her winning form given Dance And Romance and Beau Marsh will need to leave their previous modest efforts behind to get involved in this.
