Verdict

SWEET REWARD (NAP) carries top weight but faces an easier task than when beaten less than a length in Class 2 company over track and trip last time. He gets the vote ahead of Scarlet Dragon, who went close at Windsor recently and is fitted with cheekpieces for this. Light Up Our Stars made a winning debut for his new yard when scoring at Epsom while the unexposed Saigon narrowly beat the re-opposing Lady Reset at Salisbury and has the scope for further improvement.
