Verdict

The top two come out best at the weights and of those Lewyn is the most consistent. But all four of his victories to date have come at Wolverhampton and NORTHERN DARE is just preferred. Richard Fahey's charge has ran poorly either side of his only start at this track, when he scooted clear for an easy win over C&D in January, and today's return visit can see him get his head back in front. Colorus saves his best for Southwell, while Wanchai Whisper has a bit to find with the selection on last month's running.
