Verdict

All four horses are worthy of mention in this novice stakes but the vote goes to Wolf Hammer. Owner Graham Wylie has two in the race courtesy of the selection and Parchant who may struggle on the ground first time out. Wolf Hammer improved ten fold to finish second on his latest start at Redcar when beaten by Imperial Sound. The big question mark will be the ground but it will be the same for all four horses. Sentiro Rosso ran well on softish ground at Pontefract on his latest run. That was an improved effort and can be a danger to the selection today. Peters Delite was not beaten far at all when third to Turnaround at Thirsk last time so any market moves should be noted. But for the winner we return to Wolf Hammer.
