Verdict

A number of out-of-form performers on view in a race where they will probably betting 5/1 the field. Madam Flora has not won in ten attempts but she did put in a reasonable effort at Wincanton to finish second to Reverse Swing. The TEAMtalk selection is Look To The Future. Charlie Mann's gelding had bits and pieces of form in Ireland and left behind a modest first run in England to finish second at Aintree to Marked Man. Nameless Wonder and Gray Knight hail from decent stables but have yet to show much on the track. Dealers Choice has dropped in the handicap but his stable are yet to fire. Iadora would make some appeal if recapturing any of her earlier form in bumpers.
