Verdict

Toffee Apple complicates matters as she was due to run at Carlisle yesterday where she had every chance. So the vote goes to GALILEE CHAPEL, only 4lb higher in this after winning at Hamilton recently and capable of handling any cut in the ground. Kerry Icon has yet to win though was placed at Newcastle under today’s apprentice a couple of days ago and Gone With The Wind is another with place claims off his current mark. The remainder are harder to fancy given their recent poor form.
