Verdict

A few of these have questions to answer and so we will go with one of the more consistent runners in the line up Emmasflora, Progressive and Air Guitar could provide most danger. Emmasflora has earned top-weight with some solid efforts last season, including two victories at Sedgefield. The jockey is good value for his five pound claim and the combination can take this competitive event. Progressive is from Jonjo O'Neill's yard is is lightly raced for an eight-year-old. He didn't show anything in two outings last year but is potentially well treated on his best form and it would be no surprise to see this one in the thick of the action. Air Guitar hasn't raced since November when an excellent third behind Alph at Fakenham. If fit following his winter break he could be in the shake up. Siegfrieds Night makes a quick return to the racetrack following a run on the flat at York last week and could be best of the others. However Emmasflora is a mare in form and looks the one to be on.
