Verdict

STREET POET has won a couple of apprentice races at Wolverhampton this month. Due to be raised 10lb after this, he’s difficult to oppose and the hat-trick beckons. Cap D'antibes went close at Wolverhampton on his debut for new connections and drops back down in trip today while Nicky Baby finished in front of Frankie Jaz when fourth over 7f last time. Arlo's Sunshine will be sharper for a recent comeback while Raajihah improved for a change of headgear at Wolverhampton and has switched yards.
