Verdict
Everything For You had been showing little until second in a Lingfield bumper last month. Our Dot's Baby has run well here previously and could go well at a price from near the foot of the weights. Song Of The Hunter has gone up 3lb since his second at Taunton but has every chance of going one better if handling the going, which will be the quickest he’s raced on to date, though is closely matched with Guernesey on the form book. CONFIRMATION BIAS ran a shocker on his handicap debut at Taunton in December but looked to be back on song in a bumper last month so gets another chance. Saggazza could have his second in a maiden here last time franked earlier on the card so can’t be ignored.
