Verdict
This is a very competitive affair with many in with chances and our pin fell against the name of Jostle, with others considered being Fantasy Defender, Ellens Princess, Whatatodo and Azuree. Running from the same mark as when he was third at Salisbury last time, Jostle has to be on your list of possibles for this modest affair. Fantasy Defender scraped home at Musselburgh last time but a penalty will not make life easy. Tanning showed a bit more sparkle last time, while Ellens Princess certainly holds claims on the best of her form. Will The Till's last two runs have seen improvement and this drop to seven furlongs might bring some more, and a return to Good Wee Girl's best form would give her a shout, although that eventuality cannot be guaranteed. If Whatatodo can repeat his latest effort, he holds a good shout, but Sabo Prince has more on his plate than when winning a Leicester seller last time. Finally, Azuree has shown enough from today's mark of late to give her a squeak. Given that it is a three-year-old handicap, something might come from out of the pack but, for the winner, we will stay with Jostle.
