Verdict

Twice a winner here and much improved, FIRST LINK had no chance in a Class 2 at Chelmsford last time but is back in the right grade here and receiving weight from all-bar-one of her rivals so has every chance of getting back to winning ways. Call Me Grumpy is still seeking a first win on the all-weather but has been knocking on the door and is unlikely to be far away again. It Must Be Faith has a wide draw but could also play a part and Nezar has Jack Duern’s claim in his favour. Gunmaker and Marshal Dan are returning from a break but Stormy Blues is worth considering under Luke Morris.
