        Verdict

        Wimpole Hall won over 1m2f at Chelmsford on his penultimate start but was beaten under a penalty back at the same track when TAQWAA (NAP) finished runner-up. That was the latter’s first start since August 2016 having been gelded since joining Laura Morgan’s yard so it’s reasonable to expect an even better effort today. Argus won over 2m here earlier while Darebin won a maiden at Lingfield at this time last year and has scored over fences since. Red Hot Chilly has yet to win anywhere in 18 attempts.
