Verdict

This is a very low-class handicap in which Sudden Wish is the only course winner and the only one to have scored over the trip. His last victory was in a selling hurdle at Stratford in May but he's been running well enough at a slightly higher grade. The maiden Happy Jack has run his best races here but is better over further and Fast Approach is fitted with a visor on his handicap debut and faded over a mile here last time. Charlie's Star was beaten in a seller here last month but did run better a couple of weeks later, though he was behind One Last Dream, who ran his best race for a very long time. The latter's lone success in 25 starts on the all-weather was in 2013 but the one to beat may be SOLVEIG'S SONG (NAP). She was having her first start beyond a mile here last month and didn't get the clearest of runs when making her move so gets the vote to make amends and gain her first success.
