Verdict

VIOLA PARK bounced back to form with a course and distance success last month. He had Loveatfirstsight back in third and should make another bold bid. Bell Heather finished closer at Newcastle back in February and it’s only a matter of time before she’s winning off her current mark while Cryptonite won off a similar mark here in May and is back at this track for the first time since. Fossa won at Southwell earlier in the year but Oakley Pride is best in selling company.
