Verdict

Requisite was a narrow winner at Ripon last week and Ian Wood's filly is likely to struggle to defy the penalty for that success in a race taken to go to PIC UP STICKS, who is preferred to Louie's Lad. John Bridger's gelding has found one too good in each of his last two starts and he should again be thereabouts but may once more have to settle for minor honours. The relatively unexposed Triple Dream looks the pick of Milton Bradley's two runners ahead of Bluebok but both have to be considered. Don Pele has been running well in sellers and claimers of late and ran better than expected back in a handicap last time and he cannot be ruled out, while Tiger Trail ran better at Salisbury last time but is still a maiden. The vote then goes to Pic Up Sticks, who was value for further than the winning margin suggests at Folkestone last time and Brendan Powell's 10-year-old is taken to follow up that success.
