In depth
Verdict
A very weak looking seller and so the newcomer Flemensgold will not have to be anything special and this one gets the vote ahead of Sound Skin and The Hearty Joker. The selection is quite well bred for this game being by Flemensfirth out of a Le Moss mare. She is a sister to to bumper winners and a couple of successful Irish point to pointers. The market will give obvious clues but she will not have to be a world beater to land this contest. Sound Skin has done very little in his last three runs but has shown ability in the past and does take a big drop in class here. Meanwhile The Hearty Joker should improve having just had two outings following a two year break. If you go back far enough Rightontime has strong claims on past form and may do best of the others, but in a dire contest Flemensgold is a token selection.
