Verdict

Cloudless caused a major shock when easily beating an experienced field here last week and can follow up at the expense of Erracht and Abraxas. James Unett's filly was un-fancied at 16/1 but belied those odds with an emphatic five length victory over Inching. She finished strongly off a fast pace and she should once again get a good gallop today. Abraxas is making his Wolverhampton debut but ran a belter on the sand at Southwell last time when just touched off by Cash and another bold showing is expected. Lady Pekan beat Erracht by a length and three quarters here last time but with a seven pound turnaround in the weights Karl Burke's charge should come out on top today and will be a big danger to the selection. Kiss The Rain and Never Without Me are both running well at present and could take a hand in the finish however if Cloudless can produce the same finishing kick toady she should collect.
