In depth

Verdict

Quite a moderate classified event that should fall to I Wish, with Ripple Effect and Fulvio selected as the main rivals. I Wish is the only runner with recent winning form, landing a seven furlong handicap here two weeks ago, she was always well up with the pace so today¿s drop in trip shouldn¿t be a problem. Fulvio is not the most consistent of performers but if on one of his going days he should be in the shake up. However a bigger threat to the selection will be Ripple Effect who was not beaten far behind Compton Banker in a better race than this last time, the form of that seven furlong event has recently been given a boost so Ripple Effect has to be considered. The rest of the line up appear to be a modest bunch so it could turn into a three horse war with I Wish set to land the spoils
