In depth
Verdict
Many in with a chance in this handicap chase namely Tommy Spar, Saby, Wild Power and Native Daisy with the tentative vote going to the last named. Sure to improve from his seasonal reappearance Native Daisy can run a big race here. He looked as though he blew up last time out around here over the longer trip of three miles and with this shorter trip likely to suit and for the horse to strip a lot fitter he is taken to score. Tommy Spar is sure to be a lively contender after his course and distance win last month but he has more on his plate this time around. Wild Power and Saby have both been knocking on the door this summer season but are now on the verge of being frustrating so are therefore ones to treat with caution. So for the winner we return to Native Daisy.
