Verdict
MOSSGO arrives in good form which is more than can be said of the rest of these. He had Risky Rizkova back in third when scoring over track and trip last time and can shrug off a 6lb rise in this company. Burnt Cream won over course and distance early this year but finished nearer last back here on her latest start while Emily Davison scored at Chelmsford in March but has been beaten off similar marks in three subsequent starts. Imjin River won at Southwell only last month but hasn't scored on Polytrack since 2009 and Bubbly Bailey remains on a 3lb higher mark than when winning at Kempton last year.
