Verdict

Nodform William gets the vote here ahead of Morning Roses, although in what is a weak race, support for any of the newcomers could prove significant. The selection ran what can only be described as a moderate race when making her reappearance a month ago at Aintree, however she was fairly well supported that day and should have benefited from that run. Keith Reveley's Morning Roses is returning from a seven month break today and should perform better than when disappointing on her last run at Market Rasen, however that course isn't for everyone and it may just be that she didn't act on the sharp undulating track. The betting should indicate whether the filly is fit enough to repeat her encouraging debut run of last year, and coupled with the trainer's good record at the track, she rates the main danger. The market should be closely monitored for further clues, however for the winner we return to Nodform William.
