Verdict

Red Cape comes out best at the weights once more after recording an easy win in a seller here last week with the re-opposing Steelcut behind. Ruth Carr's charge is the one to beat dropping back a furlong if running anywhere near the same level but BRENIN TARAN is just preferred. He won in similar company at Lingfield in February before going close in a handicap over track and trip last time. The remainder have it all to do on today's terms, including recent C&D winner Lesley's Choice and last month's Kempton scorer Black Baccara.
