        Verdict

        SKY GYPSY (NAP) never came off the bridle when making all for an easy success over track and trip recently and David Barron’s filly will take the beating despite an 8lb rise. Powerful Dream has been raised 7lb for winning at Chelmsford last week with Red Stripes and Zipedeedodah well beaten while Newstead Abbey beat Swendab over course and distance on his penultimate start. Berryessa scored off a similar mark here in November but A Sure Welcome has done all his winning so far over further.
