Verdict
Both Flowing Clarets and Mr Potter carry 6lb extra for recent victories at Windsor and Chelmsford respectively though both have won off higher marks in the past and are not out of this. Neither is recent runner-up Poppy May though she’s upped in class today and it could be the turn of WILD FLOWER. The latter found only one too good over track and trip last time with Brother In Arms back in fifth and Jimmy Fox’ charge can return to winning ways off his current mark. Itsupforgrabsnow is unexposed but attempts today’s trip for the first time having run well over a mile on her handicap debut.
