Verdict
Kiss Chase is one of the few horses who come here in form and Jim Goldie's gelding is taken to win again at the main expense of Kyrenia Girl and Smash N'Grab. A four length winner when last seen, the selection responded well that day to the application of first-time blinkers and assuming that the headgear works for a second time, this could be another race for the taking. Seb Sanders is a more than able deputy in the saddle as he attempts to battle back having been pegged back by Jamie Spencer in his quest for the Jockey's Championship. Joint Expectations represents a trainer coming into a bit of form and should be more at home now back over a mile having not lasted home last time out over further. Sangreal and Meeting Of Minds warrant respect now dropped in grade, whilst Kyrenia Girl could play a hand as she steps up in trip and down in grade simultaneously. Kiss Chase however comes here in good heart and is fancied to win again.
