Verdict

Trader Jack and Tatting are both struggling at present but the remaining quartet all won at this venue on their latest starts. PEARL NATION (NAP) was the most impressive of those, dotting up over 7f in a Class 2 event. He's up 7lb but drops in class and can go in again. Bognor takes on much better rivals as he bids for a hat-trick of course wins and stablemate Starfield has a 10lb hike to contend with after an easy course and distance win. Patriotic scored over 7f last time but is arguably better over today's trip and may finish closest to the selection.
