Sweet Pickle is the only course and distance winner in the line up so has to be respected, however we will take a chance with Dasheena, Linda Green is also expected to be in the shake up. The selection is not the most consistent of performers but on the pick of her course form she has very strong claims. Off a one pound higher mark she finished an excellent second behind Whitbarrow in a stronger looking race than this and a repeat of that run could be good enough this afternoon. Sweet Pickle was all out to win here last time out and may just be in the handicappers grip. However in a modest affair she should still be therabouts. Linda Green has dropped down to a very lenient mark and will pop up sooner or later, it could be today. However Dasheena is also well treated on her best form and she gets the vote
