Verdict

Toledo Gold won easily at Sedgefield last time with Claragh Native well beaten in third. But he finished a long way behind ROBIN'S COMMAND (NAP) when third over these fences earlier. The latter has been raised only 3lb for his latest success and the hat-trick beckons for Rose Dobbin's charge. City Line has a shout on his earlier second to the selection and Sergeant Pink is back on a winning mark as he drops in class, but Clondaw Knight looks high enough in the handicap now and hasn't raced since April.
