Verdict

Wind In My Sails has a 7lb rise to contend with having won at Newbury last week but Cricklewood Green is up only 3lb for scoring at Brighton. Justice Lass was not beaten far despite only finishing fifth at Salisbury while Unison is raised in class after winning over course and distance recently. BERNIE’S BOY also ran here last time when third in this grade. Andrew Balding’s charge gets another chance off his current mark but Philadelphia could also figure with an apprentice’s 7lb allowance helping out and Henshaw has slipped down the weights.
