In depth
Verdict
Another open affair in which the market would be a good guide but the TEAMtalk selection is Mister Sweets. The gelding from the Mark Chapman yard is improving with each run and was a good second behind Duncan Dock at Southwell last time out. Champain Sands was well beaten in a Newmarket maiden but this is an easier race, and the colt by Green Desert is worth a look in the market. Dusty Wugg was third in a seller last time out behind Mr Stylish but he will need to improve on that effort to score. Cotebrook is bred to need a much longer trip. But the gelding from the Malcom Jefferson yard has shown a little over this sort of trip. First Eagle is from a yard beginning to hit top form and a market move should be heeded. The remainder need to improve on all known form to score.
