Verdict
A decently contested sprint handicap to end the day, and the in-form Cerulean Rose is fancied to continue her winning run, at the main expense of Intellibet One and Erracht. The selection was racking up a hat trick with a convincing success at Goodwood last week and this progressive filly is hard to oppose while in her current form, so is fancied to defy a 5lb penalty here. However, this will be no walk in the park, as she faces some in form rivals as well. They include Intellibet One, who was engaged at Windsor on Monday night but has excellent claims on recent form and will be suited by this stiff finish. Erracht likes this course, as she showed when winning a claimer here last time, and also has a decent chance on that form, while Twilight Mistress is another who should enjoy the stiff finish. However, Cerulean Rose is in sparkling form and we believe she can continue her winning run here.
