        Verdict

        A decent little three-year-old handicap where Le Toreador is taken to land a hat-trick and he can beat several other previous winners in doing so. The selection landed a Redcar ladies' handicap on firm ground, so conditions here will suit, before he followed up easily at Kempton. Now he has found his feet this full brother to the high class La Cucaracha looks very much on an upward curve and can progress again to land this. Beat The Bell was a seven length claimer winner at Chester, acts on the ground, and this stiff 5f should suit, so he can get involved. Select Committee was a soft ground Newcastle scorer in similar company last time out and if the visor is as effective second time around then he'd have a chance. Revue Princess is not certain to get home, Barraland may be more effective in headgear if handling ground this quick, while Another Socket will be helped by a 3lb drop and we'll look for more from her. Even so, Le Toreador looks like he might be going places and is a confident choice here.
