Verdict

Rancho Cucamonga is selected to get the better of Bold Cheverak, Our Kes and King After in an open nursery. David Barron is always worth following on the all-weather, and the fact that the North Yorkshire trainer has had a couple of big-priced placed horses on the sand over the past few days augurs well for the chances of Rancho Cucamonga. The Peter Savill-owned youngster has not been out of the first two in her last four engagements, and should be in the thick of things again here. A repeat of her second to Triple Two last time at Wolverhampton, where she had to overcome a wide draw, would be more than enough, and as long as she gets the trip, this being her first attempt at seven furlongs, she can pay to follow. Bold Cheverak was a beaten favourite at Southwell but is lightly-raced and has scope, while Our Kes was given a good ride by Tony Culhane when successful in a Wolverhampton maiden, and may not have as much improvement. King After is holding his form well and will be staying on at the finish, so is yet another that can help make things tough for Rancho Cucamonga who we shall take to repel them all.
