Verdict
CWM RHONDDA is in good form and he can continue his hot streak at the main expense of Agapanthus and Can Can Star. Trainer Peter Chapple-Hyam has just started to hit form and this filly Cwm Rhondda looks one to stay on the right side of. She won well last time when she got the better of Extremely So at Yarmouth. She won with a bit in hand that day and she has proven form on this ground so she should be hard to beat. Agapanthus ran a race too bad to be true at Newmarket last time but he is better than that and given his shrewd connections it could pay to side with him if the market speaks in his favour. Can Can Star has got course and distance winning form and he arrives here on the back of a successful run at Nottingham earlier in the month when he comfortably beat Princelywallywogan. He has more on his plate tonight but he still looks capable of making the frame. Timocracy wasn't at his best at Doncaster last time but he had previously been in good form and he does handle cut in the ground. Snowed Under and Shady Gloom are others that can go well, but we prefer the claims of Cwm Rhondda who looks to be on an upward curve.
