Wild Flower is consistent enough but has yet to win in 18 starts. She attempted to make all here last time but was caught close home by Hawk Moth, who usually goes well on the track and should do so again. The latter was beaten into fifth at Leicester on Monday when Top Offer finished runner-up and Patrick Morris' charge looks set to confirm the form. Harry Bosch finished runner-up to Wordismybond here last time and the winner looks to have a chance in the previous race but the vote in an open finale goes to AYE AYE SKIPPER, who had winning form in Ireland last summer and will be better for his first run for new connections at Salisbury a fortnight ago.
