This looks an easy opportunity for Crocodile Kiss to record her first victory, Brave Chief and Witty Girl look the best alternatives. Jamie Osborne has had a bit of a quiet spell, but he does tend to hit form at this time of year and Crocodile Kiss does have the best form on show. She finished fourth to Comeintothespace in a decent Wolverhampton seller last time, after running well in handicaps. This drop to banded company today should do the trick and she is a confident selection. Brave Chief put in an improved performance last time when third in seven furlong event here and with further progression should be there or thereabouts this afternoon. As with the selection Witty Girl steps into banded company for this afternoon, she had very good turf form, but has disappointed on the other two all-weather surfaces. If she handles this fiberesand she could be a threat to all. However there are less question marks against Crocodile Kiss, who should land the spoils
