Verdict

BRIDGEWATER BOYS is our selection here, with Friends Hope and North Parade his closest competitors. The well exposed Bridgewater Boys is a prolific winner on artificial surfaces and is consistent and should run well again. North Parade was victorious in his last outing at Southwell a couple of weeks ago, where he responded to pressure well and his stamina saw him home in front. It was his first time at the track and he looked to enjoy the surface. Friends Hope is another course and distance winner. The eight-year-old mare put in a good performance here last time and will be looking to build on her second place finish. Of the rest of the nine runners, Rawdon and Mac Don may be worth a look as Rawdon has been in good spirits since joining Gay Kelleway. So in what should prove to be an interesting middle distance race, Bridgewater Boys should be victorious.
