Verdict
DOCTOR PARKES is our pick with Fivefootnumberone and Gilt Edge Girl respected. The selection was given the perfect ride to score at Chester last time out and hailing from a yard that have enjoyed plenty of success with their sprinters at this track, he can progress further. John Quinn's yard are flying at present so Fivefootnumberone is very much part of the party. He has it to prove over five though any give in the ground will play to his stamina. Gilt Edge Girl bids for a three-timer. A versatile individual, she made full use of a helpful draw at Windsor. Servoca is dropped to the minimum trip having exhibited plenty of early speed over further. Musselburgh specialist, Visterre has a rare away day to Merseyside. Blades Princess and Gower Valentine have a bit to prove after poor seasonal reappearances. Doctor Parkes appears best.
