Verdict
EDIE SUPERSTAR is the form pick and is taken to win again at the expense of Kinout and Mac Dalia. The selection was in winning form at Lingfield when last seen out for which he is now rated four pounds higher. That does not seem unrealistic and as he still looks to be improving with experience he is the one horse in the race worth staying on the right side of. Kinout wears cheek pieces for the first time to enhance his enthusiasm. He has proved to be slightly frustrating to follow but he never seems to run a very bad race. If the head gear do have the correct effect he can easily be in the shake up. Mac Dalia won well at Great Leighs on his penultimate race but was a big disappointment at the same track last time out so has to be treated with some caution. So for the winner we return to Edie Superstar. (Nick Millard)
