In depth
Verdict
Miss Rideamight looks set to follow up her recent victory, at the expense of Temper Lad and Monsal Dale. That success came in a pretty weak affair at Market Rasen, but she did idle in front after hitting the last. She had looked the winner along way out and could be much better than that bare form suggests. Temper Lad hasn't shown too much recently but if returning to his best he would be capable of taking a hand in the finish. Monsal Dale hails from a yard that has a fair bit of success in this type of company and he does look fairly treated on what he has achieved so far. Others to note, particularly if they attract any money, are Moss Run and Norton Sapphire, but Miss Rideamight has proven her ability and gets the decision.
