Poisoned Berry failed to cope under a penalty at Lingfield last time for winning a novice event at Exeter before that. She can figure handicapping for the first time while Horseguardsparade was only caught close home at Ffos Las in November and also has a shout. Carlisle winner Western Wave found a 7lb rise beyond him last time and Greyed A is preferred upped 5lb for his win at Lingfield. But CALCULATED RISK was winning off higher marks last year and having been placed in a higher grade handicap at Ffos Las recently, Debra Hamer’s charge gets the vote in this.
