In depth
Verdict
Very effective on ground with some give, TROUBLE SHOOTER looks a decent bet to record a third victory of the campaign despite a 5lb rise for winning at Thirsk. A first try over 1m4f should suit handicap debutante Hermosura and Whims Of Desire is surely better than she’s shown so far. Closer Than Close looks a better bet than Mini Milk on jockey bookings.
