Verdict

It was heavy going when EASTER GOLD won a similar event over course and distance three weeks ago eased down. Lucy Wadham’s mare is taken to defy a penalty in this with plenty more to come. Dual bumper winner Who What When easily beat Crackle Lyn Rosie at Market Rasen over a year ago and will likely improve for last month’s hurdling debut at Newbury while the latter goes hurdling for the first time on her reappearance. Memphis Bell has shown nothing in either start so far
