Verdict
Lord Of Dreams, Summer Bounty, Jakarmi and Nina Fontenail are all short-listed with the vote going to the last named. Rod Millman does well at his local flat track an with his team of horses in good form at present Nina Fontenail looks sure to capitalize on her recent third at Lingfield first time out. Lord Of Dreams bids for a hat-trick here after wins at Woverhampton but is now ten pounds higher in the weights and with top weight to carry he looks vulnerable now. Summer Bounty runs off the same mark as when winning at Warwick on his penultimate start and ran with credit last time out when fourth here over course and distance so is to be repected. As is Jakarmi who never knows how to run a bad race and since his last win at Woverhamton last month has been a model of consistency. But for the winner we return to Nina Fontenail.
