Verdict
SWEET NATURE (NAP) won in novice company at Newcastle in November and has gone close off today’s mark subsequently when runner-up at Chelmsford. A repeat should see her back to winning ways as she drops down a grade. Toriano finished well ahead of a below-par Footstepsintherain when successful over 7f here over a year ago. Both have tumbled down the weights since and the latter re-opposes on much better terms but it’s difficult to make a case for either Middlescence or the veteran Robert The Painter.
