          Verdict

          Rymer's Rascal, Naughty Girl and Alpine Hideaway are three against the field in this handicap and the vote is given to Naughty Girl. The selection won well when defeating Esperance at Bath last time and now that this filly has hit form she may be capable of defying a penalty to score again. Rymer's Rascal rates the main danger as this 12-year-old turned back the clock to beat Splodger Mac at Thirsk last time, but that was a poor race and things dropped right for him last time so he looks worth taking on here. Alpine Hideaway ran well over hurdles last time and returns to the flat with obvious place prospects. He has got a good attitude and with conditions to suit he should again run his race. Of the remainder, Wonder Wolf is from an in-form yard and is worth a second look in the market, but for the winner we return to Naughty Girl.
