Verdict

AIDEN’S REWARD ran his best race so far when beaten only a neck over track and trip and may well get off the mark at this lowly level. Klipperty Klopp had Hunters Step back in third when scoring over course and distance but Watheer has plenty to prove over the distance and is fitted with cheekpieces having won over 7f at Wolverhampton last week. Deolali is another back up in trip after winning over 7f here while little separated third-placed With Approval and Gun Case over track and trip recently.
