Verdict

Low Delta has shown improvement in each of his four runs this year and if progressing again could challenge, whilst ALFADORA is our pick having put in some good chase runs lately with Freedom Flying and Bring It On Home with a chance on the pick of their ability. The trip should suit the selection and on his past tries he will benefit from the quicker ground. If there is any rain this could play against him. Freedom Flying is interesting attempted over three miles for the first time and after staying on last time out when only fifth at Uttoxeter she may put in a better effort. Low Delta ran fairly well to place here recently over half a mile less than today and is offered as an alternative. Bring It On Home may have finished third at Exeter on his latest start but was a long way behind the victor, although finished better than some higher rated opposition so is worth consideration. We prefer the attentions of Alfadora who has put in two solid tries in Chase company at this track over the past month and can translate this form to the hurdles and win today.
