Raiding Party looked the type to go well in nurseries when landing a c&d course win here recently and she can make the grade here, with Lake Sabina and Golden Dane among the dangers. Raiding Party improved on a promising Lingfield debut by handling this surface well last time in what was a decent maiden for the track. Her mark of 72 looks very fair and with Seb Sanders booked connections appear to be serious and can be rewarded. Lake Sabina has shown a consistent level of form in four starts thus far and like the selection she also gets a good pitch here. She can set the pace, which will at least means she will hopefully have a clear run, and she can go very well. Golden Dane took a 5f seller here recently but does not look as effective over this trip so we will oppose, and Wee Buns, who took a nursery here last month, looks a better proposition at these weights. Natmana ran a good race at Pontefract last time and a reproduction of that effort will again make him competitive if he handles the track, but Raiding Party can step up to the mark in nursery company.
