Verdict

Oliver Stammers is one of the most experienced apprentices riding in this but his mount, Colour Contrast, has thrown away numerous winning opportunities and is now 0-24. Crazy Tornado won over a slightly longer trip here at the start of the month and Redarna is back in the right grade after his latest fifth at Carlisle. Phebes Dream hasn’t had much racing over the last couple of years and has been racing on Polytrack this season but Lotara and Clary are worth a market check. We’ll take a chance on INDIGO PRINCESS as Mick Appleby’s mare is well treated nowadays and will probably handle conditions better than most.
