Verdict

Cool Isle, Mossman Gorge and Zaffeu are the three that catch the eye in this trappy seller, and Cool Isle is given the vote to come up for auction. Zaffeu has been running respectably in handicaps recently but won a claimer three outings ago. This represents a drop in grade, and although not favoured at the weights, he can make a bold attempt to concede weight all round. Winner of a claimer here over a mile four outings ago, Dream Forest was well beaten in a seller at Lingfield last time. He did not appear to see out ten furlongs last time, so this attempt at two furlongs further may be beyond him. Cool Isle has landed sellers at Beverley and Wolverhampton recently and will have no problems with the trip, unlike some of his rivals. He appears well treated here and can bounce back to winning form after respectable efforts in defeat recently. Cool Isle is the selection.
