Verdict

Front-runner Fizzy Feet was hampered once headed at Chelmsford last time and is better than that. She had earlier made all over track and trip when beating TOTAL COMMITMENT (NAP) but the latter has subsequently finished less than a length behind the winner in a Class 2 sprint here. A repeat should see Pete Hedger’s charge come out best on this occasion and confirm latest running with Merhoob. Shamshon may struggle at this level but Deputise is worth a second glance, despite returning from a lay-off, as he debuts for a new yard having won four times as a two-year-old for William Haggas.
