Verdict
A small but competitive field goes to post for the opener on the card and we take Bella Tutrice to get her head in front. The filly from the Ian Wood yard has been in fair form of late without winning but if she reproduces her latest effort when second behind Crafty Fancy she will be hard to beat as she is proven under these conditions. Gone To Ground rates the main danger. He was a fair fourth on his debut behind Baltic Wave and is sure to improve. Celtic Thunder is another that could take a hand - he ran well on his debut when fourth behind Hillside Girl. However he gave the impression he would be seen to better effect over a longer trip. Gold Dust Woman catches the eye on breeding and is worth a cautionary look in the market. Of the remainder High Voltage is from a yard in form and is also worthy of consideration.
