In depth
Verdict
PRETTY RECKLESS has now won two of only three starts over fences having scored at Market Rasen on her latest start. Dan Skelton’s progressive filly is worth sticking with in this. Chasma returns to action off an 8lb higher mark after winning at Sedgefield in March while Global Domination has been off the track since January last year when scoring at Fakenham. Captain Mowbray has the more recent form having just missed out at Sedgefield last month and he looks the main danger sporting headgear for the first time.
