Verdict

DAZZLING BEGUM is given another good opportunity to open her all-weather account but will have Bright Sparky and Rub Of The Relic in close order. It is a worry that the selection hasn't taken advantage of similar opportunities recently but only found a decent looking type too good last time and finished well ahead of the rest. A similar performance against this field should be enough off a more than fair mark. Bright Sparky won a amateur riders handicap at this track last time and has been rewarded with a four pound rise in his rating. That shouldn't be enough to stop him in his tracks and he as won over hurdles off a mark of 94. My Mirasol could be another to consider given some consistent displays in the summer in addition to Safin who was well below par last time out. Those two will have to produce their best while Dazzling Begum looks ready to win again.
