Verdict

SAMPERS SEVEN (NAP) has yet to race on Turf but was having only her second outing for Mick Appleby when scoring by three lengths at Chelmsford last week. Due to be raised by 3lb more than today’s penalty, she looks to have leading claims and can go in again. Autumn Trail won a maiden at Chelmsford before going close on the all-weather here on her handicap debut and is preferred to Buy Me Back, whose earlier success at Kempton came over a longer trip. Capla Spirit won a novices' race at Southwell in March but has since finished behind the selection.
