Verdict
The three previous winners Dispol Isle, Tuscarora and Sahara Silk may dominate this contest and we will side with the last named. The selection returned to her best last time with a game victory over Sweetest Revenge. That was at Wolverhampton but she has solid form on this surface as well and can make it back to back victories this afternoon. Tuscarora got the better of Lincolneurocruiser last time. The slight drop in trip is a slight concern this afternoon, but she should still be thereabouts. Meanwhile Dispol Isle is versatile as regards trip and was most impressive when beating Soft Focus last time, another big run can be expected. Of the others Witchelle is a very consistent sort and still looks on a competitive mark, however Sahara Silk won with a little bit to spare last time and can follow in this fascinating affair.
