Verdict
A small but competitive field go to post for this seller. Gospel Song was a good winner at Hexham last time out when defeating Little Les, is proven on the ground and will be hard to beat despite top weight. Pertemps Cindrella rates the main danger on her second behind Job Rage at Uttoxeter, but she disappointed on soft last time out. Darrell Boy won a seller under similar conditions at Sedgefield last season and he probably needed his first run of the season when well beaten at Leicester last time. Le Sauvage has become disappointing of late, while Rhapsody In Blue would have a chance on his best form. However, he took a crashing fall over fences last time out and he is probably having a confidence boosting run here.
