Verdict
Undercover Brother was beaten under a length in a similar race to this at Ripon earlier in the month and is only a pound higher. But his best form is on quicker going than this whereas BOW BELLES has run her best races on ground with some give. Recent rain is a positive for Tim Easterby’s filly, who can be forgiven her run in better company at Beverley last month. Funkadelic’s win came in a three-runner claimer on Tapeta while Bahuta Acha is not progressing. The other pair have even less to recommend them.
