Verdict

This is a modest affair and the hat-trick-seeking Come On Annie must have every chance of adding to recent victories at Ffos Las and Taunton. She's been raised 11lb since her latest success but still makes more appeal than stablemates Fuzzy Logic and Kozmina Bay. My Viking Bay is only a plater while ex-pointer Molon Labe may need this and Thomas Bell races from out of the handicap but there are possibilities about MAJESTIC BULL. Susan Gardner's gelding landed a gamble at Bangor in December and, though he's shot up the weights since, this should be within his capabilities.
