Verdict

Returning from a lengthy absence, Crem Fresh was second again here in January and should be capable of picking up a race like this but she is conceding a lot of weight to HAZY DREAM. Joe Tickle’s mare hasn’t run badly at Taunton and Exeter after a pipe-opener at Wincanton. Chantilly Haze has shown nothing this term but Kenahope could be worth a market check with her stable in flying form while I Giorni was hampered when third at Wincanton and isn’t highly tried on her handicap debut.
