Verdict
DIDDUMS scored over this trip at Brighton on Wednesday and though failing to follow-up over 7f the next day he was unlucky in-running and can gain compensation. Wishformore looks the main threat as she was gaining her first success on her 12th start at Kempton last time and could still be improving, especially as she hasn't had much experience on turf. Fault was beaten in a seller at Leicester and is best over 7f but Join Up likes the trip and is 5lb lower than when landing a handicap at Wolverhampton in February.
