Verdict

Western Miller has every chance of landing a hat-trick having won a conditionals’ race at Market Rasen last time and escaping a penalty as a consequence. Polarbrook also bids for a treble but he’s been raised 13lb after scoring at Stratford and Tyrrell's Succes is preferred having just missed out at Aintree last time with Destiny's Gold back in third. RESTRAINT OF TRADE (NAP) won at Uttoxeter last month and ran well again when placed in a higher grade contest than this at Cartmel. Jennie Candish’s charge is worth another chance back at this level.
