Verdict

TIGERFISH scored cosily for Josh Bryan last time and the combination look strong contenders again off a 5lb higher mark. The Stone filly has done connections proud with four victories in 2017 but the one real concern is that she has yet to face ground with cut and that needs to be factored into her chance here. The Happy Hammer is fully exposed but ran much better last time at this venue, though top weight Bryght Boy makes greater appeal. He went close on soft ground over this trip last time and his yard is now in much better form. Rosie Crowe was out the back last time but is one of the main players if that run is forgiven as the remainder of her 2017 efforts give her every chance in this ordinary contest. Hanningfield is also worth a market check off bottom weight on handicap bow.
