Verdict

A seven furlong handicap is next on the agenda and the vote goes to WAKE UP CALL ahead of Sairaam and War And Peace. Wake Up Call has a 177 day absence to overcome but with his stable amongst the winners it would be foolish to dismiss his chances on that basis. Chris Wall does really well with what he sends to Yarmouth as his position on the course trainers table will tell you. Wake Up Call ha s by far and away the bet form in this line up and the daughter of Noverre should appreciate the return to seven furlongs. Sairaam won her last start nicely after coming from well back to win going away. She is not one to put much faith in again especially at a short price but she is certainly to the fore of this field in terms of form. War And Peace won his last start but that was a moderate affair and has a little more on today on a different track. Dinner Date has been in good form on the all weather but usually saves his best form for the sand. Resplendent Alpha must be monitored in the market off his current mark but we'll have to return to Wake Up Call in the hope Chris Wall has her fit for her first run of the season.
