        Verdict

        A poor contest where WHAT A FELLA is taken to beat Africa's Star and Simple Rhythm. The selection had the beating of Africa's Star when the pair met at Hamilton last month and acts well on a sound or fast surface. Now 8lbs better off with that rival, he should be able to confirm placings even though cheek pieces may elicit some improvement from the Michael Dods inmate. Simple Rhythm has won on both good to soft and good to firm, plus the Fibresand, so she won't mind this ground and would welcome further rain. James Given has his string in good nick and the filly will be competitive from this mark in this grade. Zelos Girl has already picked up a good ground Catterick maiden but so far this year has looked out of sorts and it may be that the drop into this grade will help see her finish closer. Money for her would be interesting. Theta Wave is another of interest now pitched in at this lowly level, while Yellow River is nicely drawn and won't mind any further rain, but What A Fella is the suggestion.
