Verdict

Plenty with claims in this including Krystallite, who beat Aguerooo at Wolverhampton before the latter went on to beat today's opponents Rosealee and Men United. Just A Groove is better than his latest effort over 6f at Wolverhampton suggests and Hot Stuff went close over today's trip at the same track last time. But a chance is taken on DARK SIDE PRINCESS as she has shown promise in Class 4 maidens and goes handicapping for the first time today with Silvestre De Sousa back on board.
