Verdict
Sunset Nova is a four-times track winner who has dropped to the same mark as his last success in October when ridden by a 7lb claimer. Capla Knight opened his track account at the 10th time of asking a couple of weeks ago and, though 5lb higher, today's rider can claim an extra 2lb. The lightly-raced Wychwood Whisper is 8lb higher than when scoring here in December but REVERBERATION has dropped to a lowly mark as a consequence of a long losing run. Kevin Manning takes over on Jimmy Lambe's charge, who was unlucky in-running over 7f earlier this month. Final Fantasy has been racing over further and her three Polytrack victories in the UK came over this trip.
